Cyrtarachne is a spider that camouflage them self by mimicking bird drop or a snail.
This one is a small sized spider the Cyrtarachne Inaequalis.
At the first glance, I didn't think that this one is a spider; it looks like a snail or something, but when I look closer... I realized this one is a spider and when I touch it's soft and shiny abdomen it started to move. Interesting experience for me, my first encounter with Cyrtarachne...
