Heteropoda davidbowie

David Bowie spider
Indonesia
~ 2,5 cm bodylength

Heteropoda davidbowie was determined by Jäger in 2008. It was named after the pop icon of the same name. The slings are rather white in color but already very hairy. Later the animals have an orange color. Like all Huntsman spiders, these are faster than the human eye and extremely effective hunters.
