Crab, Spider, or Shrimp?

It was the day when the guest should be arriving, and as usual, to start the day I was about to clean the common area in the villa, so that it would be clean and ready to welcome to guest to spend their holiday in the vill. At least we could give them the best impression and experienceduring thier short and expensive holiday here in Bali.

But then when I am about to wipe the surface of the table, I noticed some green creature was staying still on the edge of the table. Upon a closer look, I met with an interesting creature, which I think it was my first encounter with this type of creature.

Have a look at the shape of this little creature. what is your first guess? a crab, a shrimp or spider?

apperently it is a spider, a species from the crab spider, although the shape of its two pairs of the front leg look like the shrimp leg which is about to reach for something. hahah

I could not find the exact species of this crab spider, but lookin at the shape of the leg, and also the eyes of this spider, this is for sure most likely to be part of the crab spider family. In case you know the name of this spider, please kindly let me know.

although not the kind of the crab spider that I want to photograph, but having one of them to be my subject is alredy such a great achievement and luck. : )
