Canary Islands
The Canary Islands (; es, Canarias, ), also known informally as the Canaries, are a Spanish autonomous community and archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean, in Macaronesia. At their closest point to the African mainland, they are west of Morocco. They are the southernmost of the autonomous communities of Spain. The islands have a population of 2.2 million people and they are the most populous special territory of the European Union. The seven main islands are (from largest to smallest in area) Tenerife, Fuerteventura, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, La Palma, La Gomera, and El Hierro. The archipelago includes many smaller islands and islets, including La Graciosa, Alegranza, Isla de Lobos, Montaña Clara, Roque del Oeste, and Roque del Este. It also includes a number of rocks, including those of Salmor, Fasnia, Bonanza, Garachico, and Anaga. In ancient times, the island chain was often referred to as "the Fortunate Isles".

Agelena
Agelena is a genus of agelenid spiders first described by Charles Athanase Walckenaer in 1805. Sometimes referred to as Eurasian grass spiders, they trap their prey by weaving entangling non-sticky funnel webs. They are limited to the Old world, occurring from Africa to Japan. Many species have been moved to other genera, particularly to ''Allagelena'', '' Benoitia'' and ''Mistaria''. ''Agelena limbata'' is one of the most common web-weaving spider species in Japan. Species , the World Spider Catalog accepted 46 species: *'' Agelena annulipedella'' Strand, 1913 — Central Africa *''Agelena atlantea'' Fage, 1938 — Morocco *'' Agelena australis'' Simon, 1896 — South Africa *'' Agelena babai'' Tanikawa, 2005 — Japan *'' Agelena barunae'' Tikader, 1970 — India *'' Agelena borbonica'' Vinson, 1863 — Réunion *'' Agelena canariensis'' Lucas, 1838 — Canary Is., Morocco, Algeria *'' Agelena chayu'' Zhang, Zhu & Song, 2005 — China *'' Agelena choi'' Paik, 1965 — Korea * ...

Spiders Of The Canary Islands
Spiders ( order Araneae) are air-breathing arthropods that have eight legs, chelicerae with fangs generally able to inject venom, and spinnerets that extrude spider silk, silk. They are the largest order of arachnids and rank seventh in total species diversity among all Order (biology), orders of organisms. Spiders are found worldwide on every continent except for Antarctica, and have become established in nearly every land habitat. , 50,356 spider species in 132 Family (biology), families have been recorded by Taxonomy (biology), taxonomists. However, there has been debate among scientists about how families should be classified, with over 20 different classifications proposed since 1900. Anatomically, spiders (as with all arachnids) differ from other arthropods in that the usual body segmentation (biology), segments are fused into two Tagma (biology), tagmata, the cephalothorax or prosoma, and the opisthosoma, or abdomen, and joined by a small, cylindrical Glossary of spider ...
