Lynx spider with a mosquito (probably Aedes) kill

Hairs on the limbs give the lynx spider a better detection sense for vibrations.

Oriented as it was in life. The stereo works also when rotated 180º.

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)

This tiny Lynx Spider was on the lookout for prey on the tip of a basil flower spike.

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.

 

I believe it's a Lynx Spider.

Yellow Lynx Spider - Oxyopes variabilis - Tetragonula carbonaria

lynx spider very seldom bites humans, and when it does, its venomous bite, though painful, is not deadly but may cause surrounding (edema) swelling up to 7"-10" in diameter. The species is primarily of interest for its usefulness in agricultural pest management, for example in cotton fields.

Lynx spiders often have long hairy legs and are fleet of foot. This one seems cramped up to fit on the small petals of the Australian Daisy Bush in my Gold Coast hinterland home garden.
