Found what I thought was a leaf on a web, but being cautious, that leaf looked suspicious so I used a stick. Thank goodness, because I would’ve died right there and gone to heaven 💀 

For real though, is this a dangerous spider? It look like a leaf when it curls up, but its legs are really long and it’s pretty big (included pictures of it circling up to leaf look)

Buthus occitanus?

Found this one in my home. This is the only picture I got before I released it outside. The capturing process pissed him off and he has quite a large pair of fangs.

Anyone know who this dude is? Western Cape, South Africa

Saw this while hiking in Ventana wilderness near Pfieffer Big Sur state park this weekend, thought it was interesting enough to bring to y’all. This dude was pretty small, maybe a little bigger than my pinky nail? (Note: I am using dude in the California gender neutral sense, when in Rome and all that)

Zebra dude in Big Sur, CA

I just finished a convention and this amazing shop with preserved specimens from bugs, arachnids, rabbits, turtles, snakes, and rats has sold me a large mystery box. It was $100 and it included other prizes and goodies in it too. However, I was hoping for a tarantula specimen but this one I got in the box is just as interesting. I have just started my bug collection, but I could not identify this spider in particular. Hand for comparison. Can someone please help me identify my new specimen? Thank you!

Cat-faced spider

Seattle, WA in my living room

This spider (I think some kind of orb weaver?) has been in my house for at least a week but I've seen it both yesterday and today kind of curled up like this looking like it's having a bit of a hard time. Could this be true?
If so, I have an indoor greenhouse cabinet with some pests that I'm trying to get on top of using predatory mites. It sits around 20°c and 70-80% humidity. I don't think I can put the spider outside because it's too cold, would it have a better time in the greenhouse cabinet or is this a ridiculous idea? I've heard of people keeping jumping spiders in there so figured it might be a kind of win win situation

Is this spiderbro struggling? Can I put it in my indoor greenhouse cabinet?

The tank is abt a 20 gallon vertical with custom background. Lots of places to climb and some decent hiding spots. I only have 2 in here, same size and unknown sexes. I know they can be cannibalistic but I’ve heard it’s rare. I just put some crickets in there too. Also the other whip spider isn’t even close to the one in the pic, they’re just chillin in the other corner of the tank so what is this one doing? And I know this one isn’t being sassy towards me bc I took this pic a little while ago and they’re still holding their grabbers out.
