Indlela yokusiqaphela

  • The carapace (the hard upper shell of the front body) is brown, with a distinct yellow stripe running from the front eyes down the body.1
  • The underside of the abdomen has distinct black spots.1
  • It is around 17 mm long on average, which makes it one of the smaller wolf spiders.1
  • Males have yellow legs without distinct markings. Females have reddish brown legs without markings or bands.1
  • It does not make webs and is usually active at night.1

Sidla ngokubhidaniswa no: It is often mistaken for the nursery web spider (Pisaurina mira). The wetland giant wolf spider has a brown carapace with a distinct yellow stripe from the front eyes, and black spots on the underside of the abdomen. It is also similar to T. georgicola, but it has black spots that T. georgicola lacks, and its faint yellow stripes do not extend as far.1

Amandla etyhefu yokuluma nokuhlaba

Ukuluma

Ityhefu iphuma ngamazinyo aso etyhefu okanye ngamazinyo aso xa siluma.

Ityhefu yaso yokuluma okanye yokuhlaba yenza ntoni?

Its bite injects venom. In people, the venom causes only minor pain and swelling.1

Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?

Ingozi ebantwini: KuthambileNjengokuhlatywa yinyosi okanye ngaphantsi. Phantse asinangozi ebantwini.

It is not very aggressive and will not attack people unless provoked. Its bite is not medically significant to humans, and antivenom is rarely needed.1

Iindaba ezimnandi: oogqirha banamayeza (i-antivenom) okanye unyango lwale nto.1

Senza ntoni xa soyika?

It hides in burrows, under stones or boards, and relies on camouflage and speed to avoid predators. If needed, it will bite a predator and inject venom.1

Ukuba siyaluma

  • Hlamba indawo elunyiweyo uze ubeke ipakethi yomkhenkce kuyo ngenxa yeentlungu. Fumana uncedo lwezonyango ukuba iintlungu zinamandla, ziyasasazeka okanye umntu uziva engaphilanga kakuhle.

Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala

Hlala ukhuselekile

  • Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
  • Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
  • Ukuba siyakuluma: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.

Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

Iinyaniso

1

Females can cannibalise males during or after mating. Smaller males are more likely to be eaten, and hungry females are more likely to do it.1

2

This species does not build webs. Females make silk-lined burrows under stones or boards instead.1

3

Males live for just over a year, while females often live for around two years.1

4

Hunger affects behaviour. Well-fed females made significantly more burrows than starved ones in a 1999 study.1

5

Females are much larger than males. Mature females weigh more than 300 mg and have carapaces about 6.5 mm wide, while males usually weigh more than 200 mg and have carapaces about 4.5 mm wide.1

Umqhekezi weentsomi

Intsomi: Wolf spider bites are dangerous and medically serious.
