The female goldenrod crab spider (Misumena vatia) can change colour from deep mango-yellow, through lime green all the way to white which is helpful when trying to sit atop flowers and ambush flying insects coming to pollinate.
Does anybody else think this one didn't choose the ideal colour to blend in with the marigold (Calendula officinalis)?
