While I haven't researched this spider, I have no doubt it has evolved to look like the Green Ants to enable it to more easily hunt them. We have another spider here that has evolved to have the same smell as the Green Ants to make it possible for them to raid the ants nests and steal their larvae.Perhaps this was already discussed, but could the spider have "mimicked" the ant's color, etc to facilitate the hunt?

@Marilynne I love the way Osprey look down at you when they fly by. They must wonder what the heck that clicking sound is when we photograph them. Great shot!
