Field Notes

Description:

I was digging the ground to plant a bush, so I found these two spiders. They were in a small, narrow hole. I thought spiders were two babies developing in the hole, but spiders lay eggs. They were bright and apparently healthy, were alive and moved, but could not walk, chelicerae were uprooted. about 2 cm.

thanks, apbookreader923. looks like trapdoor spider. thanks, Diaz José Miguel, I'm still researching them. I think they were transported by wasps.
I would love to know the species, I have spotted one of those in the past here in Costa Rica
