Monomad - Oxyopes salticus
This is my entry for the daily #monomad challenge
It's been a long time since I photographed this king of the bush spider, because even though it's quite easy to find it in the bush area, that doesn't mean it's easy to tame it. Yeah, the spider I'm referring to is a female spider named Oxyopes salticus.
This spider is pretty cool that's why I call it the king of the bush spider, this is because the Oxyopes salticus spider can hunt its prey even without using a spider web like most spiders.
Even though the Oxyopes salticus spider itself can produce webs, I often see them catching their prey directly without having to wait for the prey to be trapped in the spider web first. And some photos of the spiders in question I have uploaded below.
