Spinybacked Orbweaver


Found several of these little critters out at the Cactus Sanctuary near La Paz. They look more like a crab than a spider.

Weirdest spider I've seen in a long while. Good find!

They must be common throughout the Americas. We have them here in SW Florida as well.

I would have thought that a spider had nabbed a crab in its web!
