0.1 Heterothele sp. Zanzibar - 2.5" DLS

It's a rare occasion that I can get this zippy little female to sit still for a photo, so I thought I would share. Those spinnerettes are epic!
Just like my AF gabonensis re spinnerettes, by far the fastest African I've owned, and easily as fast or faster than many Asians. One moment you see her, and pow she's gone like lightning.
 
Yep, blink of an eye fast! Super skittish but not defensive in the least, though. Pretty much the same as the others in the genus...
