Resolviendo la incógnita 🌐<p>La tarántula devoradora de aves (Selenocosmia crassipes) puede desarrollar patas de hasta 22 centímetros de longitud. Es conocida por el zumbido que produce al estridular las setas de sus quelíceros. Aunque no es letal en humanos, produce vómitos e inflamación muy dolorosa. 📷Pratik Jain <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ara%C3%B1a" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>araña</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/spiders" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spiders</span></a></p>

Resolviendo la incógnita 🌐<p>La araña Atrax christenseni crea telarañas en forma de embudo, pero lo realmente temible es su veneno. Esta araña de hasta 9,2 cm de diámetro tiene uno de los venenos más potentes del mundo, capaz de matar a un humano adulto en 15 minutos. Afortunadamente, la existencia de un antídoto común para su género ha evitado las víctimas mortales.📷Kane Christensen <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ara%C3%B1as" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>arañas</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/spiders" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>spiders</span></a></p>

Interesting spider

Found this cute little dude under a log that was occupied by trap jaw ants. I'm always amazed at the life to be found under a log. It moved very strangely, but didn't seem to mind me getting close enough to snap a photo. It did not appreciate the flash at all though.

Got quite the shock just now when I saw my pet _Parasteatoda_ had made an egg sac!!

She has molted since I caught her, so it's not fertilized, she just made it on her own initiative. I didn't think she was full grown! I'm just very surprised. Uh…happy Valentine's Day?

Newly discovered fungal species makes zombies of cave spiders on island of Ireland phys.org/news/2025-01-newly-fu paper: ingentaconnect.com/content/wfb

"all the infected #spiders were positioned on the roof or walls of the #caves. These normally reclusive spiders left their lairs or webs and migrated to die in exposed situations, essentially, mirroring the behavior of ants infected by #fungi of the genus Ophiocordyceps previously reported from the Atlantic rainforest of Brazil."

En la araña mariquita (Eresus sandaliatus), solo el macho tiene el abdomen rojo con manchas negras. Este pasa el invierno en su red y se reproduce en primavera con la hembra, completamente negra y más grande, que servirá de alimento para su descendencia.📷 N Sloth #araña #spiders

Durante el día, las arañas del género Poltys fingen ser ramitas, con mayor o menor éxito, apretando sus patas contra su cuerpo. Por la noche hace vida normal de araña construyendo su tela. Esta es una P. mouhoti que a veces aparece señalada como P. acuminatus. #araña #spiders
