Please help to identify as I’ve never seen this before…
Would really appreciate if anyone knows what this is
I haven’t seen it before, it’s really weird! The pose is that of a Crab Spider. It is male. The black shiny cephalothorax (prosoma) is odd. The good news is that if it was dangerous someone would probably have recognized it. We’ll keep working on it. Unrelated note: I’ve noticed on this site that WTF is becoming a worldwide abbreviation used in many countries and languages. It is similar to OK, which began as a joke abbreviation in USA, now worldwide.
Thanks so much for getting back … anybody I have shown the pic to haven’t seen it before … would be grateful for any information… worried it’s dangerous … sorry for The abbreviations !
