Differences between the venom of male and female Phoneutria nigriventer have been reported, with females producing a greater quantity of venom. [17] PhTx-2 is considered the most toxic group, which is also potent for primates. [18] Humans can be ten times more sensitive to the P. nigriventer venom compared to mice. Primates, such as monkeys and ...
Female seen from below. Trichonephila clavata pass winter as eggs and scatter as tiny juveniles in the spring. Like most spiders, females are much larger than males. The adult female's body size is 17–25 millimetres (0.67–0.98 in) while the male's is 7–10 millimetres (0.28–0.39 in). The web of females may reach several meters in length.
A number of spiders can cause spider bites that are medically important. Almost all spiders produce venom but only a few are able to cause significant harm to humans. [1] Two medically important spider genera have a worldwide distribution—Latrodectus and Loxosceles. Others have a limited distribution.
Spiders have been used in studies which indicate that invertebrates may experience pain. Under natural conditions, orb-weaving spiders (Argiope spp.) undergo autotomy (self-amputation) if they are stung in a leg by wasps or bees. Under experimental conditions, when spiders were injected in the leg with bee or wasp venom, they shed this appendage.
No, it's not a BBC Nature Video. It's a short video documenting the fight for survival between a bumble bee and a spider, and it's shot (and beautifully narrated) by London musician Keith John ...
Scientists discovered male spiders of the species Philoponella prominens can survive encounters with aggressive females because of a unique ability to catapult away.
Trichonephila clavipes (formerly known as Nephila clavipes), commonly known as the golden silk orb-weaver, golden silk spider, golden orb weaver spider or colloquially banana spider (a name shared with several others), is an orb-weaving spider species which inhabits forests and wooded areas ranging from the southern US to Argentina.

The spider’s behavior was “surprising” but not entirely novel, he added, noting that some species of bolas spiders attracted male moths by producing chemicals that mimic female moth pheromones.
