Took this picture while I was breaking down one of the old varanid cages we are not using anymore... I could not believe that this tiny spider overpowered this superworm and strung it up... Pretty cool...

Very cool. Is that a widow?

Dan

Dan

im far from being an expert but i guess it is one. she has these sandclock pattern on her back...

That's a cool shot :cheers:

Dang....

what a shot

looks like a deadly guest

Spiders often seem to bite off more than they can chew :D. Nice shot Gregg.

Nice pic Gregg!

Pretty cool shot. That ought to hold her over till the next meal comes along. :lol:

Not a black widow though. They are glossy jet black and have a scarlet red hour glass on the underside of the opisthosoma (abdomen).

Perhaps a brown widow. Also I believe there is a third species in the group but I am not sure.

Dan

There are actually 31 species of Latrodectus (widow spiders)... Sadly this is not the classic black widow... If it were a clasic black widow, it would have become a pet... LOL... I believe this is a species of cobweb spider...

Thanks for the comments everyone... :D

Very cool Gregg.
