Eratigena duellica (Simon, 1875) ![]() |
||
A very large and familiar spider, of which there are several other similar species. Commonly known as the House Spider, Eratigena duellica (formerly Tegenaria gigantea) needs no introduction due to the large, very long-legged males usually being the big spider seen running across carpets or found in the bath in Autumn. This freshly moulted female, was found in a wooden coal bunker at Market Warsop in early September 2009. | ||
