They're called "Happy Spiders". Thankfully they're not poisonous.

I fucking swear nature is just conjuring up random gimmicks on arachnids for the lulz. 2054 we will discover "bruh" and "LOL" spiders probably.

Google says no and they don't bite humans as they only wait under leaves for grasshoppers and flies. Plus they're native to Hawaii so that makes them okay overall aside from the whole spider thing.

they're orb weavers. some members of the genus have crazy crypsis like the one in the OP. also:

oof i haven't read any e.o. wilson. that one is referenced a lot in an ant book i've had. i don't care much for ants lol but i really like the jumping spiders that mimic them.

Those are beautiful! I think you'd like the book anyway even though you aren't to into ants.
