This is my entry for the #monomad challenge hosted and curated by @monochromes
I had posted this spider before, but still it is really interesting to share new shots that I get of this spider. As it is very easy to find, and every setting where I see this spider is always different so that I could get a different result.
Just like this time when I saw this spider, and apparently this one is a little bit different from the usual one that I saw and photographeded. Here you can see that this one has some kind of gloves on its pedipalps, which make it look like it is a small 8 legged boxer ready to go to the ring.
this is the Stripped lyx spider. Striped lynx spiders or Oxyopes salticus are relatively small (4 to 7 mm) and can be distinguished from other lynx spiders by two thin black lines extending from the small middle pair of eyes to the tips of the chelicerae and thin black lines on the undersides of their legs
Now you can see the marking that differentiates this lynx spider from the different species within the same genus. The black lines along the body make the striking difference between this spider to the other.
And the conspicuous dark pedipalps (appendages below the face) which look like the boxer gloves that differentiate the male and the female one.
Just like most of the spiders, it has a very beneficial role in agriculture as it will hunt and prey on some of the pests in the plants. However the big company will just use a chemical way to get rid of the pest, which unfortunately will also kill these spiders. And with that reason I really love to see them in my garden, because I will know that they will take care of my plant, as well as giving me a chance to photograph it.

The spider and the color are on itself a perfect story. Great shots ❤️ if I would show it to my kids they would scream and run away 😂

Of a spider gets in the car and they see it, I feels like I entered hell. And the funny part is that it are my boys, not my girl 😂
Spider can be creepy especially the very large ones. However, I still like them. Really nice photos.
Yes they are at somepoint can be really scary especially for those who are afraid of them.

At first glance it is impressive the spider, and honestly I had some fear in the past but understanding their vital role in nature I have come to value them positively, your photos are great, I loved them, greetings friend
Yes, once we learn their importance to the environment, I guess we will appreciate their existence around the house. :)
