This is a small Green Lynx Spider (Peucetia, Oxyopidae) traveling along a stem of native Telegraph Weed (Heterotheca grandiflora, Asteraceae). This might be the same spider as I showed a week ago in this photo - at least I found it in the same group of plants. If it is the same, it's been growing! My [Next] photo is another shot of the same spider taken an hour later as I came back on my walk. Arachtober 21. (San Marcos Pass, 21 October 2017)

Se mueve con una rapidez sorprendente entre la vegetación baja, no necesita tejer tela de araña para cazar, con su velocidad y las espinas de sus patas es suficiente
.Lynx spider (Oxyopes heterophthalmus)
It moves with surprising speed among low vegetation, it does not need to weave a spider web to hunt, with its speed and the spines on its legs it is sufficient.
Macro of a very unique looking green spider. The green lynx spider, is a bright-green lynx spider usually found on green plants. It is the largest North American species in the family Oxyopidae
Isn't that a great bright green? I think this is a Lesser Green Lynx, and, if so, that would make it another first sighting for me. Apparently it's very hard to tell the species apart from Peucetia viridans, which I posted earlier this month. But one possible identifier is white hairs on the abdomen, which this one has, so I'm going with it until someone tells me otherwise.
This spider was found on the night hike with jciv where we saw the scorpions. It was a great hike for nocturnal creepy crawlies and webs in the face.

I found this tiny Green Lynx Spider (Peucetia, Oxyopidae) on native Telegraph Weed (Heterotheca grandiflora, Asteraceae) that has gone to seed in the woods today. The spider is really tiny, about 1/8 inch. Arachtober 2. (San Marcos Pass, 2 October 2022)
The morning after I took this photo, she was thin and guarding a new egg sac (see adjacent pic in my photostream). Finding adult females like this means Fall is here or on the way in Southern California. (Peucetia viridans)

This is a striking little Lynx Spider (Oxyopidae), but is it an actual Green Lynx Spider (Peucetia) or just green? It's tiny, less than 1/4 inch long, on a flower of native (but weedy) Telegraph Weed (Heterotheca grandiflora, Asteraceae). Yeah, I should have measured the flower; I'll do it tomorrow. I suspect that is indeed a juvenile Green Lynx Spider, maybe the same Peucetia longipalpis that I showed yesterday because it has white hairs on its abdomen and those are the early ones . It's curious that I've found near-spiderlings on these flowers before, see this photo from a couple of years ago. And here they are all alone at the top of a five-foot plant that's swaying in the breeze! Arachtober 2. (San Marcos Pass, 2 October 2019)
A green lynx spider protecting her hatching babies. She's a gorgeous spider, even to this arachnophobe. Taken in Huntsville, Alabama.
Found on saline playa just east of Kellerberrin-Yoting Road, NE of Quairading. Western Australia, Australia.
Lynx spider, Oxyopidae, I believe. Saw several of these crawling on the playa surface.
Found in this general vicinity: 31.81859S 117.59563E.
Single exposure, uncropped, handheld, in situ. Canon MT-24EX flash unit, Ian McConnachie diffuser.
After yesterday's slightly flat stereo image, here is a much better one. Composition isn't the best, but it looks great in 3D.
