Those pictures are amazing. I love the spider with the red legs and the pic of the one with a fish.

Wow

Great pics.
The black w/red legs looks like it has scorpion stingers. Cool. What spider is that.

The video - those strikes were faster than I though spiders were capable of. Snake-like quickness. Fascinating

Thanks for sharing them.

Second unknown Lycosid is a Trochosa ruricola and this strange unnown spider... I think, that is Micrathena sp.?

Your black and red ''unknown'' ssp just looks insane!!!! Did i mention that Lycosa erythrognata are one of my favorite spiders ever :). Hehe, now, you're spoiling me!!!! How did you feed your spider a fish?!?! Did you just leave it on the floor or did the spider actually catch it from a water bowl or something?!?! Hm, i'd also like to know what is the common name for L.Erythrognata... Thanks for posting!!!! I dont think anybody mentionned that the Lycosid ssp with a skull on its abdomen looks GREAT!!!!

So your the guy with the awesome Lycosa vids on youtube.com (same user name :D) I'd love to get a hold of one of those big lycosa's but unfortunately I live in Canada. Awesome pics though, that Selenops sp looks amazing.

Great pics!!

And your unknown 4th from bottom ( spikey one ) is a Micrathena sp., and the unknown just above the Phoneutria is most likely a Gasteracantha sp.

not an expert, but I've found pics of "Pursewebs" that look similar to the red/black unknown.

They seem to have the same, uh, arms (pedipalps?) as the unknown in the pictures.. with little stinger shaped nubs.

Could the unknown belong to the Purseweb (Atypidae) family?

Thanks for the IDs
kliide, i think the fangs are too small to be atypidae
