Family Theridiidae
- This page contains pictures and information about Green-yellow
Spiders
that we found in the Brisbane area, Queensland, Australia.
-
- Leg to leg 20mm
-
- We saw this Green-yellow Comb-footed Spider once in Daisy Hills Sep 2008.
We found two spiders together in a tangled web on a small plant. The two
spiders had the same patterns on their abdomen, the large one is green and the
smaller one is yellow in colours. As a general rule, we thought the smaller on
was the male visiting a female in her web.

-
- This is quite save to say that this pair of small comb-footed
spiders are in genus Theridion. At the moment quite a number of
small spiders of different species which are not studied in details are put
in this genus.
