Bulijjo sooka kuba ennamba y'ebigwa bitalaze (112, 000, 911). Buno bulagirizi bwa bujjanjabi obusooka obwa bulijjo, si kuwabula kwa musawo. Obujjanjabi obusooka obw'omusingi
Weekuume
- Tokwatako, tokwata wadde okusoomooza ensolo ey'omu nsiko, ne bw'eba ntono, era ne bw'eba erabika nga yeebase oba nga efudde.
- Gireke n'ebbanga. Bw'osisinkana emu, beera mukkakkamu, dda emabega mpola era gireke egende mu kkubo lyayo.
- Bw'emu ekuluma: beera mukkakkamu, totambula, kuba ennamba y'ebigwa bitalaze (112, 000, 911) oba tuuka mu ddwaliro mangu. Jjukira bwe yali efaanana, ekifaananyi kiyamba.
Tekikunoonya. Kikozesa obusagwa bwakyo okukwata emmere oba okwekuuma, era kyandisinze kwekweka. Ebirala ku kwekuuma

Ebituufu
The spiders communicate by tapping their front legs on the sand. This seismic signalling is called drumming.1
Males may be attacked and killed by females if their drumming signal is too much like that of prey.1
Males can travel more than 50 metres in one night while searching for a mate.1
Each spider has eight eyes arranged to give a full panoramic view of its surroundings, which is unusual for spiders at night.1
Burrows can be up to 40 cm long and 25 cm deep, and their shape keeps them cooler than the surface.1
Females live about 6 months, while males live only 1 to 2 months.1
Omumenyi w'enfumo
Enfumo: It is the same spider as the wheel spider
Amazima: It is often confused with the wheel spider, but they are different species, even though they live in the same place.1
