Description
A Dinopis spider hangs motionless alongside its egg sace in an inner-city Sydney courtyard. The Dinopis group of spiders are sometimes called 'netcasting spiders' due to their method of catching prey. They will hang upside-down holding a net in the front legs, waiting for prey, and then cast the net over the prey when it comes within reach
