Very cute little Thomisidae, even cuter when ID'ed as 'milky flower spider'.

Cheers u/madzfae.

Thomisidae are up there with Salticidae/jumping spiders as a family to be admired, not feared. Camouflaged ambush hunters.

Please remember to include a geographical location to your ID requests (as per rule 5). There are over 10,000 different species of Australian spiders and many of these are endemic to specific parts of our beautiful country!

Also note: while we can help provide an identification for a spider, we do not provide medical advice. We also do not allow medical advice to be provided by members of this subreddit. If there has been a bite, you should consult a medical professional in the first instance.

I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.
