Eastern mouse spider
ንኽሳታትThe eastern mouse spider is a spider from the family Actinopodidae. It lives only on the eastern coast of Australia. People often mistake it for the Australian funnel-web spider, which is more dangerous, so knowing the difference matters.1

ብኸመይ ትፈልጦ
- Females are large and very strong, with powerful jaws called chelicerae.1
- Females have a shiny black carapace (the hard upper shell of the body) and an abdomen (rear body) coloured brown to almost black.1
- Males have an all-black carapace and a trapezium-shaped (four-sided, with two parallel sides) lighter patch on top of the abdomen, which can be white, pale blue or mauve.1
- Their fangs often cross over slightly.1
- The burrow entrance is hidden by a flap of silk, which can be found by brushing away loose soil.1
ብዙሕ ግዜ ዝደናገረሉ፦ It is often mistaken for the Australian funnel-web spider. Funnel-web fangs stay parallel, while mouse spider fangs often cross over slightly. Funnel-webs often have a drop of venom on their fang tips and have longer spinnerets (silk-producing organs at the rear of the abdomen).1

Common symptoms of a bite are numbness and tingling at the bite site, sweating, headache and nausea. Its venom contains toxins similar to robustoxin, the toxin found in Australian funnel-web spider venom. Severe reactions are rare.1

ሓደጋ ንሰባት: ከቢድንኽሳኡ ሓኪም የድልዮ። ሞት ኣዝዩ ሳሕቲ እዩ።Although it appears to be the most dangerous member of its genus, serious envenomations by this species are relatively rare. Most documented bites did not need antivenom or cause serious symptoms. Only one severe case is recorded: a 19-month-old child who developed high blood pressure, muscle spasms, an arched back and unconsciousness.1

Compared with the Australian funnel-web spider, it is far less aggressive towards humans and often gives dry bites, which deliver no venom.1
እንተ ነኺሱ
- The child with the severe case responded well to funnel-web spider antivenom. Australian funnel-web spider antivenom has been found to be effective in treating severe mouse spider bites.1
