Nursery web spider (Pisauridae), Coventry, CT, Fairly Aggressive, 5.8.15

$19.00$400.00

Nursery web spiders are spiders of the family Pisauridae. They resemble wolf spiders(family Lycosidae), but they carry their egg sacs by means of their jaws and pedipalps(instead of attaching them to their spinnerets). When the eggs are about to hatch, a mother spider builds a nursery “tent”, puts her egg sac inside, and mounts guard outside. The name “nursery web spider” is especially given to the European species Pisaura mirabilis, but the family also includes fishing spiders and raft spiders.
