Bolas Spider

Mastophora cornigera

Description:

Bird dropping mimicking spider. Spotted with 2 groupings of 4 hanging egg sacs.

Habitat:

Under a coconut palm leaf in my garden.

Notes:

Photos are taken from whatsthatbug.com. I could not get a good shot with my camera without disturbing spider and eggs due to lighting, location. The specimen in my garden looks exactly the same as these photos.
