Members of the genus Peucetia are strikingly vibrant green lynx spiders, often found camouflaged among leaves and flowers. Contrary to popular belief, they don't pose a danger to humans as their venom lacks potency against mammalian skin. Instead, they are formidable predators to pests, playing a crucial role in controlling insect populations in gardens.
