Lace Web Weavers

The Phyxelididae, the lace web weavers, are one of the families of spiders to have appeared on the scene in recent years as a result of the collapse of the ‘amaurobioids’. They are a family of smallish spiders found mostly in eastern Africa (including Madagascar). A single species, Phyxelida anatolica, is found in Cyprus and southeast Turkey, and the genus Vytfutia includes two species found in Sumatra and Borneo.

Most spiders are harmless, but this is an exception: a black widow. If you see one of these things, do NOT pick it up with a bare hand — that’s just plain stupid!
