Northern tree-dwelling funnel-web spider
The northern tree-dwelling funnel-web spider is a large spider from eastern Australia. It lives mostly in trees, from South East Queensland to the Hunter River in New South Wales. Its venom can be deadly to people, so it is important to know what it looks like.1

Uko wayimenya
- Has a glossy black carapace (the hard upper shell of the body).1
- Chelicerae (fang-bearing parts), legs and abdomen are matte black or dark brown.1
- The top of the abdomen may have a plum or purplish tinge.1
- Body length is 40-50 mm, the largest of the funnel-web subfamily Atracinae.1
- Cannot jump.1
Ikunze kwitiranywa na: The ground-dwelling Darling Downs funnel-web spider (Hadronyche infensa) is very similar. Male northern tree-dwelling funnel-web spiders have a knobby spur on the tibia (a leg segment) of the second pair of legs, which male Darling Downs funnel-web spiders lack. Trapdoor spiders are browner overall.1

Ubumara bwayo bukora iki?
The venom is potentially deadly to humans and is regarded as the most toxic of the venoms in the family Atracidae. Symptoms can start within 15 to 20 minutes. Common symptoms include sweating, high blood pressure, a fast heart rate, muscle spasms, nausea, vomiting, changes in consciousness and pain at the bite site. Fluid in the lungs (pulmonary oedema) is frequent and comes on early.1
Iteje akaga kangana iki ku bantu?
Akaga ku bantu: YicaImwe mu nyamaswa ziteje akaga kurusha izindi ku isi.The venom is potentially deadly. Of eight recorded bites, five caused severe symptoms of envenomation. Because the spider is larger than the Sydney funnel-web, it may inject more venom, which could make it possibly the deadliest venomous spider in the world per volume of venom.1
Inkuru nziza: abaganga bafite umuti (umuti urwanya ubumara, antivenom) cyangwa uburyo bwo kuvura ibi.1
Ikora iki iyo ifite ubwoba?
When threatened, it rears up, displays its fangs, and drops of venom appear on the fang tips.1
Niba iruma
- Pressure bandages and immobilising the patient can significantly delay the onset of symptoms. This remains a critical part of managing a bite from an Australian funnel-web spider.1
- Oza aho yarumye kandi uhakonjeshe. Shaka ubufasha bwa muganga niba ububabare bukabije cyangwa umuntu yumva atameze neza.
- Muri Ositaraliya, kurumwa n'igitagangurirwa kinini cy'umukara kose bifatwe nko kurumwa na funnel-web: Gupfuka ukanda no kudanyeganyeza (pressure immobilisation): zingira bande ikweduka kandi ifashe neza hejuru y'aho cyarumye, hanyuma uzamuke ku rugingo rwose, urushyireho agati ko kurukomeza (attelle), kandi umuntu agume atanyeganyega na gato kugeza ubutabazi buhageze.

Irinde akaga
- Ntuzigere ukora, ufata cyangwa ushotora inyamaswa yo mu gasozi, nubwo yaba ntoya, kandi nubwo yasa n'isinziriye cyangwa yapfuye.
- Yihe umwanya. Niba uhuye n'imwe, tuza, usubire inyuma buhoro buhoro kandi uyireke yigendere.
- Niba imwe ikurumye: tuza, ntunyeganyege, hamagara nimero y'ubutabazi (112, 000, 911) cyangwa ujye ku bitaro vuba. Ibuka uko yasaga, ifoto irafasha.
Ntigushakisha ngo ikugirire nabi. Ikoresha ubumara bwayo kugira ngo ifate ibyo kurya cyangwa yirinde, kandi ikunda cyane kwihisha. Ibindi ku kwirinda
