Dual Spider Specimens - Gasteracantha and Jumping Spider in Resin

This unique resin display features two distinct spiders: the Spiny Orb Weaver

Spider (Gasteracantha sp.) and a

Jumping Spider (Salticidae family). The Gasteracantha is known for its vibrant, spiky appearance, acting as both camouflage and defense against predators. The Jumping Spider, with its agile legs and keen vision, is celebrated for its dynamic hunting skills and playful behavior. Perfectly preserved, this dual display captures the fascinating diversity in spider adaptations and behaviors.

Fact:

• Gasteracantha spiders are often called
  "crab spiders" due to their hard, colorful shells and spiny projections.
• Jumping spiders don't rely on webs; they stalk their prey and pounce with incredible precision, using their silk as a safety line!
