CollectA Black Widow Spider 88884

The black widow is a spider that is widely distributed with its similarly named relatives.
It can vary greatly in size and many can have red, white or brown markings on the
upper side of the abdomen. Some may be easily identified by reddish marks on the mid
lower side of the abdomen, often in the shape of an hourglass. In the CollectA model, these
details have been very finely worked out. These small spiders possess an unusually potent venom that causes
pain, muscle rigidity, vomiting, and sweating. Female spider widows have
unusually large venom glands and their bite can be
harmful to both large vertebrates and humans. Despite their bad reputation, these bites rarely result in death.
