The Karoo button spider is a venomous spider that lives only in South Africa. It belongs to the same group as the black widow spiders. Its bite causes very unpleasant symptoms, so it is worth knowing about if you live in or visit its range.1

Hono anndirtee ngal

  • It builds a three-dimensional web suspended in mid-air.1
  • The web has loose, interconnected threads that lead to a tightly woven retreat.1
  • Its retreat is inverted and cup-shaped, with pebbles built into the dome.1

No jiibondiree e: Four of the six Latrodectus species found in southern Africa are known as black button or black widow spiders, so common names alone cannot tell them apart. Its distinctive web and pebble-domed retreat help to recognise this species.1

Like all Latrodectus species, it has a neurotoxic venom, which attacks the nerves. The venom acts on nerve endings and causes latrodectism, a condition with very unpleasant symptoms.1
