Large Desctructor Spider - Heteropoda venatoria Residential Mt. Dora, Lake County, Florida, USA May 27, 2012 Size: Large huntsmen-like
Down here in the non-spider-expert world of central Florida, we've always called each and every massive brown spider the huntsmen. Heteropoda venatoria is the assumed genus/species pretty much all over the place. For many people in my circle, at least. But I'm worried there's more to the story -- more possible genus/species. It seems that's always the case with arthropods. So, what do you think with this one? Is this Heteropoda? If so what species? If not, what genus? Your help would be appreciated!
