This might not qualify as macro but I figured this forum was the best possibility for an identification of the spider. Any help would be appreciated, thanks. :)

Really too small to be accurate I'm afraid...

Could be a crab spider but as Dave said it is a bit small to be positive

Hiya Theague,

Nice shot, but as others have said tiz a wee bit small but I'll stick my neck on the block & say it could be the White Crab Spider - Misumena vatia these change their colour to blend in check this link http://bugguide.net/no​de/view/27709 (external link)

And there's also this one Crab spider - Misumenoides formosipes http://bugguide.net/no​de/view/34875 (external link)

Check em out see what you think


Cheers for now
Mark

Those do look similar to mine.. could be...

When it comes to spiders, what would be the best way to identify one? it's front? eye area? for next time I'll try and get a shot of that area too aside from any other shots I take.
