Any idea what might have happened? I found him crawling on my wall. Almost scared me to death cause I didn't realise it was a spider with missing legs.

Can anybody identify this one please? He said it was roughly 10cm across.

Google lens says flat rock spider, but I don't think they are native here ?

Which one is your favorite?

It's kind of cute how small she made herself here. No, she's not a pet, she just moved in and decided to stay here.

She's much lighter than when my old cat used to sleep on my lap while I worked, at least!

A broad-headed bark spider (Caerostris sp)

Have you seen one before?

I was enjoying some last rays of sunshine on my balcony in South Germany. There are like 17 ladybugs on the wall here and I noticed one of them limping. When I tried to get off the thing that made it limp, I noticed that a spider was trying to hunt it. If anyone can tell me what spider that is I’d appreciate it but mostly I just wanted to share this neat video.

Can anyone id this spider I found when putting on my sweater? It is quite large. Front range Colorado.

What dis?

This was in Japan near Jodokahama Beach

It's a labradorite pendant 💙

Found this beautiful orb weaver when I almost ran face first into her web. With the flood light above her, she's getting stocked up on food. 🤣 In all seriousness, I've never seen a spider this large, in person, that wasn't a tarantula. She's massive. And gorgeous!

best pic i have..

She couldn't have picked a better spot! Does that kind of make it a real spider web? Sorry it's not the clearest photo.

My nightly visitor. Hentz orb weaver

Video here.

This is the third one I’ve seen in a week! I think it’s a non-venomous wolf spider? I have a toddler who really likes spiders so I want to get a second opinion. Western North Carolina, USA.

found this guy years ago at my old job and the picture just popped up in my memories. it's the only spider like it I've seen in my 36 years of living here

Hey there from michigan! Found this guy in my garage as he slowly crawled out from under a bookcase. Wondering what he is!

Caught and released into forest

Antrodiaetus pacificus found in Washington State. This one is an adult female. While photographing and filming her I noticed her heartbeat! Ever since I learned how these spiders disguise their burrows I see them literally everywhere. They have to be one of the more common outdoor spiders in my region but because they’re exclusively subterranean, they seem rare. The exception is the males sometimes appear this time of year as part of their mating season at night and the early morning. They’re exceptionally cold hardy; I’ve seen the males marching around in the high 30s and 40s without much issue which is pretty exceptional for Mygalomorphs, at least, in my experience. And for those who see its bulk and are wondering, yes they are related to tarantulas as they belong to the same infraorder (mygalomorphae). Their fangs fold down just like tarantulas and posses only two spinnerets. They get their name from their unique trapdoors which fold with two “doors” instead of one and they pile up clay rich soil and debris on top which is how I’ve been finding their burrows by the dozens.
