Flower Crab Spider (Thomisus okinawensis)
Thomisus (Walckenaer, 1805), commonly called flower crab spiders, is a genus of crab spiders in the family Thomisidae with an estimated 142 species described by arachnologists. Thomisus includes various species known to be ambush predators that feed on flower pollinators such as bees, wasps, or butterflies.
This one seems to be Thomisus okinawensis, and is a juvenile crab spider.
Look at that cute belly, it looks a lot like a baby's diaper. However, this little guy is a fierce predator of pollinators. But don't worry, because it is not dangerous to humans.
