This is my contribution for LMAC

Back again with me on contributions to LMAC, and in this post I want to share some photos of spiders that I found yesterday at my usual location looking for photo objects in the forest or bushes in the interior of Aceh, Indonesia. And the spider I mean is Oxyopes salticus, which is a species of spider in the Oxyopidae family.

This spider is not like the jumping spider species that often make nests in wood or even in houses. Instead it prefers a variety of plants to find its prey. From my experience, some of them I found in various wild plants and some of them use their webs to trap their prey. Here are some photos, hope you are interested and like it :)
