A stunning portrait of Thomisus onustus, photographed in the Kaiserstuhl by Achim Kluck.

In the UK this species occurs in dry or moderately wet, mainly mature, heathland, usually on flowers of Erica tetralix or E. cinerea, where it sits to ambush prey, mostly bees and large flies. Adult females can adjust their background colour to some extent in order to match that of the flower upon which they sit (Oxford & Gillespie 1998). Both sexes are adult in May and June, and females deposit their egg-sac in July spun up in flower heads of Erica.
