I'm Guessing That The Realtionship Is Mutualism,
But Not So Suree (:
Spider crabs are omnivores, meaning they consume both plant and animal matter. Their diet typically consists of algae, small fish, mollusks, and other crustaceans. They are known to scavenge for food on the ocean floor using their specialized feeding appendages.
Any species of sluggish marine crab in the widely distributed family Majidae (or Maiidae). Spider crabs have a beak-shaped head; thick, rounded body; and long, spindly legs. They use a mucuslike mouth secretion to fasten algae, sponges, and other organisms to the hairs, spines, and knobby projections covering the body. Most species are scavengers, especially of carrion. Their size varies greatly. The body of the European long-beaked spider crab (Macropodia rostrata) is less than 0.5 in. (1 cm) in diameter, whereas the Japanese giant crab (Macrocheira kaempferi), whose outstretched claws can measure 13 ft (4 m) from tip to tip, is perhaps the largest known arthropod.http://www.answers.com/spider%20crab

Misumenoides formosipes (crab spider) According to "Spiderman" Brian Carroll, this flower crab spider cannot change its color like a chameleon. He performed an experiment and disproved the myth that this spider can change to white or cream if placed on a white flower. What he did discover, however, is that if a yellow crab spider lays her eggs on a white-flowered plant, her offspring will be white, not yellow. Furthermore, if a white crab spider lays her eggs on a yellow-flowered plant her offspring will be yellow, not white.
The symbiotic relationship is mutualism
The Spider Crab covers its back with various spines and tubercles, algae, and small invertebrates. It does this for self defense against predators.
mutualism
The crab spider relies on flowers for camouflage and ambushing prey, while the flower benefits from the spider's presence as it helps protect the plant from herbivores. This mutualistic relationship is an example of symbiosis, where both species benefit from their interactions.
