Xysticus

The genus name is derived from the Ancient Greek root ''xyst'', meaning "scraped, scraper". Description ''Xysticus'' and ''Coriarachne'' are dark brown or reddish-brown crab spiders often encountered on weeds or trees. While similar to the 'flower spiders', they tend to have shorter, sturdier legs. Many, but not all, species have abdomens more patterned than most ''Thomisus'' species, rather like some of the ''Synema'' species. Some however, that are more terrestrial, resemble earth in colour and texture. Most species of the genus Xysticus are small to medium sized spiders. They show a sexual dimorphism in size. Females of typical species reach a maximum of of body length, while their males are about long, about half the size of the females. The basic colour of these species is usually brown, beige or gray. The prosoma is sometimes slightly small ...
