The Zimbabwe brown button spider is a small, venomous spider that lives in parts of southern Africa. It is one of the brown button or brown widow spiders, a group of relatives of the black widow. Its bite can cause unpleasant symptoms, but it is not usually as venomous as the black button or black widow spiders.1

Ni ngay ko xàmmee

  • Builds a web low down in vegetation1
  • Its egg sac is smooth and spherical1
  • The egg sac is pure white when first made and becomes dirty white with age1
  • The egg sac has a thin inner sac surrounded by a layer of fluffy threads1

Ñu ngi koy faral di jaxasoo ak: Its web is placed low in vegetation, much like that of Latrodectus geometricus. Its egg sac is different from those of other African species of the same genus, so the egg sac is one way to tell them apart.1

Like all Latrodectus species, it has a neurotoxic venom, which is a venom that acts on the nerves. It acts on nerve endings and causes latrodectism, a set of very unpleasant symptoms in people who are bitten.1
