Scientific name: Trachelas
Description
Contrary to what their unassuming appearance suggests, the Trachelas genus, often found lurking in leaf litter and under rocks, plays a crucial role in controlling pest populations. These arachnids exhibit remarkable hunting skills, using their speed and agility rather than webs to capture prey. An interesting misconception is that Trachelas, like many of their relatives, are dangerous to humans. However, their bite is generally harmless and they largely contribute to maintaining ecological balance by preying on insects.
