Spotting

Description:

Found this black/brown spider with very large abdomen on this stick. Spider was smaller than a quarter all around. It's abdomen was the largest part of the body by far. It's legs appear striped with black. Young boy who found it told us that it laid the small white egg on the leaf. The "egg" was about the size of a grain of rice. Wasn't sure it if really was an egg.

Habitat:

Shrubby forest mostly
