Field Notes

Description:

The araneomorph funnel-web spiders of the family Agelenidae include the common grass spiders of the genus Agelenopsis, as well as the purportedly venomous European hobo spider, Tegenaria agrestis, which has been introduced into the Pacific Northwest of the United States.

Notes:

We spotted this funnel web just off one of the trails around Radnor lake. Unfortunately we didn't get to meet it's builder.
