Peruvian Ctenid dropped me a gift

[Stefan2209]

Hey all,

take a look, what my little unidentified ctenid from Peru built me over the last weekend:

No hopes here, that this thing is fertile, as the lady did her maturation molt while already in my posession and i wasn´t able to find her a male.
Nevertheless, quite interesting to watch her care for that thing.

Greetings,

Stefan

Great pics!! Too bad it's not fertile though

Hey you two,

thanks for your appreciation!

Yeah the lady is indeed a beauty, though she´s quite small: just 2cm (not even a full inch) body-length.

By temperament she´s quite a nasty lil girl, much worse than any Phoneutria. While those show you when they´re in a bad mood, this one don´t. She just attacks, without prior warnings, on two different occassions it was pure luck i didn´t get tagged!

So the sac has one advantage for me: Madame is so occupied with guarding it, it´s way easier now to do maintenance duties or take pics.

Greetings,

Stefan

I thought I had seen all of Peru's Ctenids Stefan, but I'm sure I have not seen that one before. She is very striking. Photos up to your usual high standard as always!

There is a Purple Ctenid,very common in Peru that make a quite different eggsack (fixed rather than mobile) photo attached
