Big Spider Web
 |
It seems that Lake Tawakoni State Park located in Wills Point, TX has a new attraction in the form of a 200 yard long spider web. Mike Quinn has compiled some of the discussion of the Southeastern Social Cobweb Spider linked to the picture on the left. Not sure if I should be intrigued or terrified. |
The analysis of the spiders that created the web has been released in this Texas A&M report: “A summary of the spider taxa and numbers collected is provided in Table 1. Samples contained 250 specimens in 12 families. The samples contained at least 16 identified genera.” (Boing-Boing Referer)
