- This Old World Obligate Burrower is from Angola, and Central, East, Southern Africa.
- Adult size is 3.5" -4.5".
- Most are pretty defensive once they reach 2" or so. If a retreat is available, they'll usually go to it when threatened. However, they will attack if provoked enough and can't get away from a threat. HOWEVER - if you leave them alone, they are an easy species to own. They are PROLIFIC webbers. Therefore, give them a taller enclosure than normal, so that they don't use the lid as an anchor point for webbing. If they are allowed to attach the web to the lid, every time you open the container you'll destroy part of their "home", and they will freak out and run all over the place.
- They have black markings on their abdomens and a starburst pattern on the carapace. They're generally orange with very reflective scopulae on their tarsi and metatarsi, and they have chocolate-colored undersides. Some are more reddish overall and some are golden.
