Ornamental Tree-Trunk Spider

Herennia ornatissima

Description:

From the Archives This spider was on a Coconut tree brilliantly camouflaged... I had to do a bit of PP to make the spider stand out... Seen at the left is the eggs which she was guarding full time... A thin blanket of silk was spread on almost the entire area in the picture including the eggs... Size: Female around 1.5 (body only)... :-)
