Thomisidae and Philodromidae are very closely related, not separated into families by some authors. |

Funny, because years ago I tried to find out what spider it is. I found information about the Thomisidae, but I condered this unlikely, since the spider does look quite different from the crabspiders, which I know. I did not make more effort to dig a bit deeper. It is good to hear that it is indeed closely related to crabspiders.

Hi, Eguzki. This spider is undoubtedly Philodromus. If you caught it on the pine bark, there are three philodromid species which can be found in such a habitation for sure, namely Ph.margaritatus (Cl.), Ph.poecilus (Thor.) and Ph.fuscomarginatus (De Geer). All of them are widespread in Europe. Which of them it is difficult to say by the photo. Sergey Golubev |
