Abstract
- The author talks about a Thomisidae spider interacting with the flowers of Hybanthus bicolor, that the author observed during fieldwork in Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Topics discussed include the crab spiders, which these spiders are called; the negative effect on plant reproduction from such interaction; and the reduction of pollinator insects' visit to flowers because of spiders.
