Southern tree-dwelling funnel-web spider
UkulumaThis is a funnel-web spider that spends most of its life in trees. It lives in eastern Australia, and its venom is strong enough that its bites are treated as serious medical emergencies. It is one of only two Australian funnel-web species that mostly live in trees.1

Amandla obuthi
Ubuthi buphuma ngamazinyo aso obuthi noma ngamazinyo uma siluma.
Ubuthi baso benzani?
Its venom contains a peptide called Hc3a, a small protein molecule. It does not contain atraxotoxin or atraxin, which are found in the Sydney funnel-web, yet its symptoms are very similar. Symptoms can begin within 15 to 20 minutes and include heavy sweating, high blood pressure, a fast heart rate, nausea, vomiting and pain at the bite site. Fluid can build up in the lungs early on (pulmonary oedema).1
Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?
Ingozi ebantwini: Kuyingozi kakhuluSingabulala umuntu ongatholi kwelashwa.Three out of four recorded bites caused severe symptoms. This is a higher proportion than the Sydney funnel-web spider.1
Izindaba ezinhle: odokotela banomuthi (i-antivenom) noma indlela yokwelapha lokhu.1
Uma siluma
- Applying pressure and a tourniquet can significantly delay the onset of symptoms and is a critical part of managing a bite from an Australian funnel-web spider. The venom can be successfully treated with antivenom made for the Sydney funnel-web spider.1
- Geza inxeba lokulunywa bese ulipholisa. Thola usizo lwezokwelapha uma ubuhlungu bunamandla noma umuntu ezizwa engaphilile.
- E-Australia, noma yikuphi ukulunywa isicabucabu esikhulu esimnyama kuphathe njengokulunywa yi-funnel-web: Ukubopha ngokucindezela nokuvimba ukunyakaza (pressure immobilisation): bopha ibhandeshi elinwebekayo eliqinile phezu kwenxeba bese ukhuphuka nesitho sonke, usiqinise nge-splint, futhi ugcine umuntu engashukumi nhlobo kuze kufike usizo.
Njalo shayela kuqala inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911). Lokhu kuyiseluleko sosizo lokuqala esijwayelekile, akusona iseluleko sezokwelapha. Izisekelo zosizo lokuqala
Hlala uphephile
- Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
- Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
- Uma sikuluma: hlala uzolile, ungashukumi, shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911) noma uye esibhedlela ngokushesha. Khumbula ukuthi besibukeka kanjani, isithombe siyasiza.
Asikuzingeli wena. Sisebenzisa ubuthi baso ukuze sibambe ukudla noma ukuzivikela, futhi singancamela ukucasha. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile

Amaqiniso
Three out of four recorded bites from this spider caused severe symptoms, a higher share than the Sydney funnel-web spider.1
Symptoms can start within 15 to 20 minutes of a bite.1
Its venom does not contain atraxotoxin or atraxin, yet its symptoms are very similar to those of the Sydney funnel-web.1
It is one of only two Australian funnel-web species that live mainly in trees, the other being the northern tree-dwelling funnel-web (Hadronyche formidabilis).1
Genetic analysis shows that this spider has spread through parts of southeastern New South Wales quite recently and rapidly.1
The type specimen, a female collected in Sydney, was destroyed in World War II bombing, so a neotype was chosen in 2010 and is kept at the Australian Museum in Sydney.1
