    How potent is a Black Widow's venom????

    Surprising stuff thanks for the research! Worth noting there's alot of misconception about L. Tredecimguttatus bites in europe, most travel literature stating that it is only just medically significant and not as dangerous as other foreign latrodectus species

    How potent is a Black Widow's venom????

    Is there any reliable info regarding differences in venom between latrodectus species, or even subspecies, like m. mexicanus? Or is it all basically the same?

    Latrodectus (Theridiidae) Picture Thread

    Hi all, awesome photos, hopefully not too off topic but does anyone have any reliable knowledge as to the potency of the bite of tredecimguttatus? A travel book I have suggests it is not too bad and doesnt require medical attention, but others have said otherwise. cheers

    Latrodectus newbie question..

    This is about as basic a question as possible, here goes anyway: do latrodectus females need to mate only once to continually produce young? Or several times, or continually? couldnt find anything elsewhere on the net, unusually; thanks for your time
