Ceratogyrus darlingi
African fossorial with a penchant for deep burrows, webbed entrances and the odd defensive display. Not for beginners, but a rewarding challenge for experienced hands.
Monocentropus balfouri
Spins enough web to convince you a silk factory’s moved in, then vanishes for days—only reappearing to snatch dinner with unseemly enthusiasm.
Nhandu coloratovillosus
Struts about like it owns the place, only pausing to flick a hair or redecorate with a modest patch of webbing. Not big on drama, unless it’s dinnertime or you meddle with its hide.
