    Spiny Spider - Gasteracantha sp. Scientific name: Gasteracantha sp.

    Family: Araneidae

    Spiny spiders (Gasteracantha sp.) are only 4-10mm. in size but build strong vertical webs; live mainly in secondary forests.

    This spider of the nature, can be presented in different colors, even so the species remains the same one. The males are very lesser, and the females biggest, being possess two reproductive agencies (one in each side of the body), can be found in only one of the sides, being virgin of the other side, or to be found in both. Behavior: In the spiders of the sorts Gasteracantha, Micratena and Eriophora the male constructs the “wire of on acasalamento” to the teia of the female. It touches this wire as if it was musical instrument of rope to excite the female sexually and to make to take it position receptive. While the female is magic with the cut, the male copula quickly and runs away before it perceives that she was copulada. Thus, the males of these spiders obtain to survive and to go to look other females to fecundar them. If they had been devorados, each male would die fecundando an only female, and with certainty leaving lesser number of descendants of what chance was had to cross more than with a sexual partner. It constructs to teias orbiculares, generally in the height next to 1,70 m of the ground, in vertical position in the sustentation structure, places bigger tuchos of teia, that according to researchers seems that it serves of alert the birds, or bigger insects, preventing as soon as the teia is destroyed in possible collisions. FOOD: small insects.

     

    Tarantula Spider

    Golden Earth Tiger -- H. huwenum

    The Chinese Bird Spider is a fairly large specimen, with a typical legspan of up to 8" (20 cm). It thrives in the tropical rain forests of southern China and Vietnam, where it builds and lives in burrows up to several feet deep, emerging to capture food. The bird spider preys on numerous small insects and other creatures, such as cockroaches, crickets, and mice.

    The Chinese Bird Spider is a rather aggressive species, one that will not hesitate to bite humans if disturbed. Its venom is the subject of much toxicology research, and while the effects of this spider's bite on man is not well-documented, it is frequently lethal in small doses to laboratory animals such as mice and rats. As a result, it is generally regarded as a highly venomous specimen.The venom itself is a rather complex neurotoxin, containing numerous compounds capable of blocking neurotransmitters.

    Tarantulas (family Theraphosidae, order Aranedae) are also called bird-eating spiders. These large, hairy spiders are usually pale brown to black, with markings in shapes of pink, red, brown, or black. The fangs bite vertically, not horizontally. They have eight small eyes, grouped together at the front of the carapace. Most Tarantulas hunt on the ground by night for arthropods and small vertebrates such as frogs and mice. They use their large chelicerae to crush their prey, pour digestive juices over the body, and then suck up the resulting liquid. Some species live in trees, whereas others make burrows in the ground. Females lay a batch of eggs in the burrow. An egg sac can be the size of a golf ball and contain 1,000 eggs. The spiderlings stay in the burrow until their first moult, after which they disperse to find food and to make their own burrows. They can be found worldwide, especially in subtropical and tropical areas, in deserts, forests, and a variety of open habitats. Many Tarantulas live for 10-30 years and are kept as pets. Because many are so large (body length: 3-12 cm), it is widely assumed that their bites are fatal. Some have potent venom but many do not, relying on size to subdue prey. The most poisonous species are often relatively small.

     

     

     

    Golden Silk Spider - Argiope ocula

    Order: Araneae Family: Araneidae Genus: Argiope

    The genus Argiope includes rather large and spectacular spiders that have often a strikingly coloured abdomen. These are well distributed throughout the world, and most countries in temperate or warmer climates have one or more species, which look similar.

    The average orb web is practically invisible, and it is easy to blunder into one and end up covered with a sticky web. The very easily visible pattern of banded silk made by Argiope is pure white, and some species make an "X" form, or a zigzag type of web (often with a hollow centre). The spider then aligns one pair of its legs with each of the four lines in the hollow "X", making a complete "X" of white lines with a very eye-catching spider coloured bright yellow on a field of black or variegated red white and yellow stripes forming its centre. The white patterns are called stabilimentum and reflect UV light. They have been shown to play a role in attracting prey to the web, and possibly to prevent its destruction by large animals. The centres of their large webs are often just under 1 metre above the ground, so they are too low for anything much larger than a rabbit to walk under. The overtness of the spider and its web thus has been speculated to prevent larger creatures from accidentally destroying the web and possibly crushing the spider underfoot.

    The male spider is much smaller than the female, and unassumingly marked. When it is time to mate, he spins a companion web alongside the female's. After mating, the female lays her eggs, placing her egg sac into the web. The sac contains between 400 and 1400 eggs. These eggs hatch in autumn, but the spiderlings overwinter in the sac and emerge during the spring. The egg sac is composed of multiple layers of silk and protects its contents from damage; however, many species of insects have been observed to parasitise the egg sacs.

    Like almost all other spiders, Argiope are harmless to humans. Like most garden spiders they eat insects, and they are capable of consuming prey up to twice their size. A. savigny was even reported to occasionally feed on the small bat Rhynchonycteris naso.[2] They might bite if grabbed, but other than for defense they do not attack large animals. Their venom is not regarded as a serious medical problem for humans; indeed, they often contain a library of polyamine toxins with potential as therapeutic medicinal agents.

     

    Giant Wood Spider - Nephila maculata

    Common names: Golden Orb Web Spider or Giant Wood Spider

    Main features: Large (female only) shiny legs with red or yellow 'joints', builds large orb webs. Female: 20cm across from toe to toe, with a body about 3-5cm; males are only one-tenth as big, at 5-6mm. World distribution: Tropical areas from Africa, India, China, Japan across Southeast Asia to Northern Australia and the South Pacific islands. Classification: Family Araneidae which build orb-webs. Nephila maculata is the largest of its genus.

    The female buries her eggs in the ground. First she digs a shallow hole with her strong mandibles and legs, which is then lined with woolly silk. She lays her eggs on this silk, covers it with another woolly layer then covers the whole assembly with camouflaging debris and soil. Laying can take 4 hours. Spiderlings hatch with their eggyolks still attached and don't have fully developed mouthparts, venom glands, digestive tracts or spinning organs. They may stay together at this stage. When they are fully developed, they have to disperse or they will cannibalise each other. Role in the habitat: Like other predators, the spiders control the population of prey. They are in turn preyed upon by other creatures such as birds. In New Guinea, some tribes consider them a tasty treat. The Golden Orb Web Spider's venom is generally harmless to humans and they rarely bite even if we blunder into and destroy their webs. The bite is just a scratch. They are clumsy on the ground.

     

    Torch Spider - Cyclocosmia ricketti

    Order: Araneae     Family: Ctenizidae      Genus: Cyclocosmia

    Cyclocosmia or "trapdoor spider" is a genus of spiders in the Ctenizidae family.

    The abdomen of spiders in this genus is abruptly truncated and ends in a hardened disc which is strengthened by a system of ribs and grooves. They use this to clog the entrance of their 7 to 15 cm deep vertical burrows when threatened, a phenomenon called phragmosis. Strong spines are located around the edge of the disc. The four spinnerets are found just anterior to it, with the posterior, retractable spinnerets particularly large. C. ricketti females are 28 mm long, with a disc diameter of 16 mm. Only the bottom portion of the burrow is silk lined.

    The individual species are separated from each other by the pattern of the abdominal disc, the number of hairs on its seam, and the shape of the spermathecae.

Their venom is not regarded as a serious medical problem for humans; indeed, they often contain a library of polyamine toxins with potential as therapeutic medicinal agents.

     

    Giant Wood Spider - Nephila maculata

    Common names: Golden Orb Web Spider or Giant Wood Spider

    Main features: Large (female only) shiny legs with red or yellow 'joints', builds large orb webs. Female: 20cm across from toe to toe, with a body about 3-5cm; males are only one-tenth as big, at 5-6mm. World distribution: Tropical areas from Africa, India, China, Japan across Southeast Asia to Northern Australia and the South Pacific islands. Classification: Family Araneidae which build orb-webs. Nephila maculata is the largest of its genus.

    The female buries her eggs in the ground. First she digs a shallow hole with her strong mandibles and legs, which is then lined with woolly silk. She lays her eggs on this silk, covers it with another woolly layer then covers the whole assembly with camouflaging debris and soil. Laying can take 4 hours. Spiderlings hatch with their eggyolks still attached and don't have fully developed mouthparts, venom glands, digestive tracts or spinning organs. They may stay together at this stage. When they are fully developed, they have to disperse or they will cannibalise each other. Role in the habitat: Like other predators, the spiders control the population of prey. They are in turn preyed upon by other creatures such as birds. In New Guinea, some tribes consider them a tasty treat. The Golden Orb Web Spider's venom is generally harmless to humans and they rarely bite even if we blunder into and destroy their webs. The bite is just a scratch. They are clumsy on the ground.

     

    Torch Spider - Cyclocosmia ricketti

    Order: Araneae     Family: Ctenizidae      Genus: Cyclocosmia

    Cyclocosmia or "trapdoor spider" is a genus of spiders in the Ctenizidae family.

    The abdomen of spiders in this genus is abruptly truncated and ends in a hardened disc which is strengthened by a system of ribs and grooves. They use this to clog the entrance of their 7 to 15 cm deep vertical burrows when threatened, a phenomenon called phragmosis. Strong spines are located around the edge of the disc. The four spinnerets are found just anterior to it, with the posterior, retractable spinnerets particularly large. C. ricketti females are 28 mm long, with a disc diameter of 16 mm. Only the bottom portion of the burrow is silk lined.

    The individual species are separated from each other by the pattern of the abdominal disc, the number of hairs on its seam, and the shape of the spermathecae.
