Tibellus oblongus, also called the oblong running spider or slender crab spider, is a spider with a Holarctic distribution. It does not spin webs, but instead actively hunts small insects, which it kills with venom.[1] T. oblongus lives in grassy habitats and can be preyed upon by larger spiders, such as wolf spiders like Hogna baltimoriana.[2]
