Can anyone identify this spider?

[mattyfez]

Is this normal/ it looks to be a right meaty bugger, it's about the size of a £2 coin including leg span.

Taste it and see

Shoot first, ask questions later.

Kill it, then look into it. It may try and eat you alive!!

 

[mattyfez]

Has potential for an awesome voulevant garnish, just wondering if I should leave it be or introduce it to its maker.

 

[Yaayuh!]

Buzzing spider?

Buzzing spider?

Not buzzing, it's just been sat on the wall behind my monitor for a few hours, hasn't moved a muscle. I think it's studying me, looking for weaknesses.

Taste it and see

But only after a couple of minutes on the grill.

I'm surprised you haven't killed it before asking the question of what it is.

Dragonflies have died in the past without identification.

be careful it doesn't jump onto your face and impregnate you with a small alien which grows inside your belly leading to your eventual demise.

Good luck op.

puny slob spider.

There's a nice spider outside of where I live hiding in a drain pipe crevice
looks totally bad ass and aggressive with it's 6 front legs facing forward like it's designed to grapple it's prey.

It's footprint is about as big as a credit card


One you posted OP looks like a funnel web spider

Queen wasp

It's called a "Decoy Spider",
it distracts its victim whilst its bigger hunting partner creeps up behind you and sinks its fangs into your neck.

A painless death though, so that's good.

I am concerned, so have taken it into captivity for further study.
If its a normal spider I will just put it back, I don't mind house spiders as long as they know their boundaries.
