Fat Momma Green Lynx - Peucetia viridans - Female
Encino, Los Angeles County, California, USA
September 1, 2006
Size: At least an inch
One of several adults in the same bush of Mexican Oregano (Lippia graveolens). It'ลก one of the few prolific nectar sources still going in the late-summer withering heat, so there are lots of predators hanging out there.

I know we have a lot of pics for this species, but this is a different variation.
