Mygale

| View Cart ⇗ | Info

“The spiders with which we in temperate climates are most acquainted are of small size, but in hot regions there are several species whose extended legs occupy a circle of six or seven inches in diameter. Some of these, belonging to the genus Mygale, found in South America and Mexico, are said to attack young humming-birds, and to climb trees for this purpose.” — Goodrich, 1859
