Dysderidae
Dysderidae, also known as woodlouse hunters, sowbug-eating spiders, and cell spiders, is a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Carl Ludwig Koch in 1837. They are found primarily in Eurasia, extending into North Africa with very few species occurring in South America. ''Dysdera crocata'' is introduced into many regions of the world. Dysderids have six eyes, and are haplogyne, i.e. the females lack a sclerotized epigyne. There is a substantial number of genera, but two of them, ''Dysdera'' and ''Harpactea'', account for a very large number of the species and are widespread across the family's range. One species, ''Dysdera crocata'' (the woodlouse hunter), has been transported over much of the planet together with its preferred foods—woodlice. ''Dysdera'' also feeds on beetles. These spiders have very large chelicerae, which they use to pierce the armored bodies of woodlice and beetles. There are also some reports that they have a mildly toxic venom that can cause lo ...

Dysdera Crocata
''Dysdera'' is a genus of woodlouse hunting spiders that was first described by Pierre André Latreille in 1804. They originated from Central Asia to Central Europe. The family has gained many common names from their individual species, including the "European garden spider", the "slater-eating spider", the "sow-bug killer", the "woodlouse hunter", and the "woodlouse spider". A bite from one of these spiders can be painful due to their large fangs and wide jaw. It may leave an itchy, swollen, or red bump, but the venom from one of their bites is not harmful to humans. Description Adults have a reddish-brown body and legs, and can grow up to long. Females are generally larger growing from , while males are about . Their six eyes are close together in an oval shape, and they have eight reddish legs, the second pair facing backward. ''Dysdera'' live in natural shelters, which they wrap by totally white silk. The inhabitants of hot and humid forest will take any potential shelt ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
