Description
The Trochosa genus comprises robust and stealthy hunters, often mistaken for aggressive or highly venomous spiders, yet their nature is far from the menacing myths. Primarily nocturnal, Trochosa species use their keen senses to track prey rather than spinning webs, which contradicts the common stereotype of spiders as passive web dwellers.
