This is the one I just mention..
Usually found in Bromeliads
I agree with Marianne....it is about nature!
This is a female, I just add a pic of the male
The Id was possible, thanks to a Great Naturalist in Costa Rica (Jim Lewis) and the British Museum.

This I think is the same species I post before, I need it´s ID... IF SOMEONE KNOW IT
in fact it is my first time in years of watching this kind of behavior...
This is very different that a spider eating a fly or some bug :D
Nice one.
THAT is WICKED! Gives me heebie jeebies. I hate spiders but this one is lovely!
