Do you think with all this green
that this would be viridis? We don't see green mentioned in the other descriptions. But we thought they were in evergreens?

that thought crossed my mind
but then I remembered something about a species having some green ... blah, blah, blah... I'll have to read Levi again to see if I can find the exact wording.

green coloring
I found the comment I was looking for - it was the confusion between versicolor & viridis based on genitalia. I couldn't find any other reference to another species being green. I think we're safe to move it there.

Nice coloring
Moved from ID Request. It is a long-jawed orb-weaver in the genus Tetragnatha. We are currently (mostly John Balaban) working on sorting them to figure out more species IDs.
