Xysticus crab spider? - Xysticus
Springfield, Virginia, USA

An small, immature crab spider. I believe it belongs to genus Xysticus, but I'm not sure which species. Any help identifying is appreciated.

Xysticus ferox
I'm not a specialist, but I like to identify insects. I'm almost sure it's a Xysticus ferox.

X. ferox
From what I could dig up online, Xysticus ferox does look like a good match. Thanks for the input!
