Framed Print of Crab spider feeding
Female crab spider (Misumena vatia) feeding on a fly it has caught on an ox-eye daisy flower (Lecanthemum vulgare). The spider is injecting a paralysing poison into the fly through its fangs. It will then suck out the contents of its prey. Crab spiders move sideways in order to align themselves with their prey. They use silk as an anchor line and for climbing rather than trapping victims. They are able to change their colouration (over a few days) to mimic the colour of the flower they are hunting on.
