New Garden Spider
Neoscona sp.
New Garden Spider, belonging to the arthropod phylum, arachnids, spider order, garden spider family, new garden spider genus. It inhabits dense vegetation and often weaves circular cobwebs between branches or shrubs. Photo taken.
Round abdomen, black head and chest with a flame red "figure eight" pattern, black brown legs part of the cloth with golden yellow rings, a look is not to give people a very poisonous feeling, especially the red and black of the head and chest, and the "master" black widow spider with the poison world, especially the Australian red back black widow body color is similar, naturally will cause a terrifying association.
In fact, the spider introduced today and the Black Widow spider are actually very different. Black widow spider belongs to the bulbous spider family, and this spider is a species under the genus Xinyuan spider, usually the species under the genus Xinyuan spider is weaker, and after being bitten, it will only cause local redness and swelling of the skin, unlike the black widow spider, the venom is too strong, and even some have a certain threat to the old and weak.
In addition, as shown in the figure, the web woven by the spiders under the genus Xinyuan Spider is round, and if you look closely, you will find that the surface of the web is arranged very regularly, and each circle is radiated from the center, and the shape of a bagua similar to the one composed of a fan surface is more round. The webs woven by the Black Widow spider are much sloppy, and are generally found to be disorganized webs.
If you want to say the common point, the spiders in the picture are as female as the common black widow spiders on the Internet, and "they" have a big hobby, that is, to kill their "husbands". The reason for this is that male individuals are only a quarter or less females and are not easily starved by a female KO on an order of magnitude.
