I am very excited about the website I am planning on putting together this winter. It is going to be a takeoff of lotsalegs (
http://www.entomology.umn.edu/cues/tenczar/index.htm) but the theme is midwest spiders.
I posted a bunch of the araneid pics I'll be using a couple of threads back; in addition to those posted I have
A. diadematus and someone has allowed me to use her photos of
Argiope aurantia.
I have been taking spiders pics constantly. In addition, I have the following so far:
Salticidae:
-Phidippus audax-Salticus scenicus-Sitticus sp.-Platycryptus undatus Theriidae:
-Steatoda triangulosa-Achearanea tepidariorum (unfortunately, I just release a nice round female in my room and then realized I hadn't yet photographed her, doh! Maybe I'll see her around as my photos haven't been the best of this species)
Tetragnathidae:
-Tetragnatha spp.
Thomisidae:
-Xysticus sp. (?)
Philodromidae:
-Philodromus sp.
Agelenidae:
-Agelenopis sp.
Miturgidae:
-Cheiracanthium sp.
Pisuridae:
-Dolomedes tenebrosus Pholcidae:
-
Pholcus phalangioides (unless there is another species hanging out in houses)
Lycosidae:
-unidentified species (just got this one tonight!)
11 families so far unless I am forgetting some. If any of you would like to contribute, please let me know. Oh, and all spiders are photographed live! I am especially in need of Linyphiidae pictures.
