Striped Lynx Spider
(Oxyopes salticus)
Hairs on the limbs give the lynx spider a better detection sense for vibrations.

I found this tiny Green Lynx Spider (Peucetia, Oxyopidae) among the spent flowers of native Telegraph Weed (Heterotheca grandiflora) in the Asteraceae plant family. Arachtober 31. (San Marcos Pass, 31 October 2021)
Eggs have hatched and little spiders are emerging.
I cropped the image and uploaded it full size so do zoom in for a closer look.
A little Green Lynx Spider (Peucetia, Oxyopidae) has captured a winged (alate) Termite (order Isoptera) on native Telegraph Weed (Heterotheca grandiflora, Asteraceae) in the woods today. Rain yesterday, termites today -- I guess that's how they synchronize their swarms with other termite colonies so that they'll all emerge at the same time. Maybe these are Subterranean Termites in the family Rhinotermitidae? I seem to find them in both spring and autumn. Arachtober 14. (San Marcos Pass, 14 October 2022)
Found at Swartberg Hiking Trail - De Hoek trail head, SE of Prince Albert. Western Cape, South Africa.
