This tiny crab spider was found at Red Butte Gardens (on my friend's arm).  Luckily
she didn't smash it and instead offered it for a photo. We loaded it on to this
paper for easy photographing but it didn't stay long. © Carol Davis, 6-24-05


This little Misumenops (crab spider) was lurking on a tiny flower ready
to snatch its next victim near Ivins Reservoir in Southern Utah.  Notice
how the long front legs are designed to easily grab unsuspecting
pollinators.  © Carol Davis, 4-24-06
