Running Crab Spider

Commonly found on vegetation, tree bark, and the exterior of buildings or vehicles; they are frequent 'hitchhikers' on cars.

Carnivorous; they are active hunters that chase down small insects like flies, gnats, and aphids rather than using webs.

Extremely fast runners that move in quick bursts. They do not spin webs to catch prey and are known for their flattened bodies which allow them to hide in narrow crevices.

Harmless to humans; they provide ecological benefits by acting as natural pest control for gardens and agriculture.
