we had a container at work today (from canada) and i found a spider on it.normally i wouldnt keep them but this one caught my eye.
ill try to descripe it as best i can as i cant get a picture.
on the ventral side of the abdomen it has an hourglass shape that is a red/orange colour but the circumference has a yellowish colour to it.the hourglass shape has a point to it,kinda the king piece from a chess set.
the dorsal side of the abdomen has three red lines in the middle which are outlined by a thicker band of white.
there are three lines the same as the ones in the middle that are pointing diagonally (south) from centre to outside.(on both left and right sides of the abdomen)
at the top of the abdomen there is a horse shoe shape (the same colours as above)
the legs (from the tarsus going up) are slightly transparent every other leg segment.
hope you can understand my description ok...lol
