Monomad - Gasteracantha hasselti & Oxyopidae Spider

This is my entry for the daily #monomad challenge

A few days ago while I was in the bush, I came across two species of spiders. One of them is a unique spider and rarer than other spiders. It is a spider with the scientific name Gasteracantha hasselti, a spider from the Araneidae family that I found while hanging in its nest area.

The spider with the characteristic of having two horns in the shoulder area is sensitive, this happened when I tried to photograph it at close range and this spider without stopping kept avoiding my camera shot so I only got a little bit of the photo and even then was still not optimal.

Then the second spider is the king of the bushes or predators in the leaves. Without the help of spider web, it can prey on insects that approach it in hiding areas behind leaves. The spiders I mean are Oxyopidae. And some of the photos below that I have included are photos of Oxyopidae spiders that are preying on insect species. Here are some photos:
