  • A small green spider is camouflaged to match the depths of a datura flower blossom, in Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, California, USA. Spiders have eight legs and are not insects. Spiders (order Araneae, class Arachnida) are air-breathing arthropods that have chelicerae, grasping mouthparts with fangs that inject venom. Unlike spiders, insects have six legs and a pair of antennae.
