The white-tailed spider is a slim, long-legged spider that lives in southern and eastern Australia. It gets its name from the whitish tip at the end of its abdomen. It hunts other spiders at night rather than spinning a web, and it can bite people.1

Ni ngay ko xàmmee

  • Slender spider with a dark reddish to grey, cigar-shaped body1
  • Dark orange-brown legs with bands1
  • Grey abdomen with two pairs of faint white spots1
  • Usually a distinct white spot at the tip of the abdomen, just above the spinnerets (the silk-producing organs)1
  • Does not build a web1

Ñu ngi koy faral di jaxasoo ak: Lampona murina is very similar to Lampona cylindrata. The two are not easily told apart without microscopic examination. Several other spider species also have a white mark at the end of the abdomen and are called white-tails.1

The bite injects venom. Typical effects are a small red or discoloured bump that burns or itches, along with local pain and swelling. Rarely, the bite causes nausea, vomiting, malaise (a general feeling of being unwell) or headache. These symptoms are generally mild and go away over time.1

Bites are generally mild. In a study of 130 confirmed white-tailed spider bites, there were no necrotic ulcers (areas of dead tissue) and no confirmed infections. The effects were mainly local, such as pain, a red mark, swelling and itching.1
