Spiders of Zihuatanejo
ORDER ARANEAE
Black-tailed Red Sheetweaver
Florinda coccinea
These spiders typically build their webs between blades of grass that are close to the ground. They have two different parts of their web. The top part is intended to knock flying insects down, and the bottom sheet catches them in a non-sticky web where the spider attacks the prey.
