Hi, I’m not familiar enough with the species in your region to suggest a genus without researching, but the family should be Thomisidae – this looks like some sort of Flower Crab Spider.

Thanks for the quick reply! There are so many insane spiders that both horrify and intrigue me here. I’ll take a look into the Flower Crab Spider.
