Adult from above
A Thomisid spider found on green leaves or in flowers but spends most of its time in a retreat made by folding the end of a leaf into a bell-shaped tent. The carapace and abdomen are somewhat roughened whereas the similar Cymbacha saucia has a smooth exterior with more obvious patterns.

Very young juvenile, possibly another Cymbacha
Collected mid June 2009 on the northern side of the junction of Fish and Enoggera Creeks, Walton Bridge Reserve, The Gap. As juveniles are difficult to identify it is not possible to be certain about this ID. Body length about 3.5mm.
