Also known as atracinae, this spider is native to Australia.
The bite of this spider is venomous, and could be potentially deadly.
Though they are only 1-5 cm. in length, their fangs are quite large and dangerous.
The funnel-webs make burrows in moist, cool, sheltered habitats, under rocks and in rotting logs, some in rough-barked trees.
Unlike some spiders, they do not build lids to their burrows, so be careful!
I like this bar of news that comes up across the bottom of my screen. I like it a lot.
