Hi, This was taken today in SW Turkey, I believe it is a yellow crab spider possibly Thomisus Onustus but would welcome an ID from an expert in this.

Thank You
 
I go along with what Aeshna5 says. According to Wikipedia there are lost of Thomisus species but it would appear that the only one that lives in Turkey is onustus - but how reliable is Wikipedia?
