Eresus walckenaeri "Orange rings Mountanatica locale"

The females of this species has a nice bright orange ring around the abdomen and are reported to be the largest species of velvets spider reaching over 2 inches. Super rare and high in demand species! 

These spider’lings are super tiny, but very easy to keep. I find spider’lings do best set up in a 3 dram size jar, with nothing but a crumpled up piece of paper towel to build a web on. They will be easy to spot and monitor this way. Once they get bigger they can be set up in something a litter nicer and natural looking. Keep bone dry. Drosophila melanogaster fruit flies will be needed to start with, but they will also scavenge on dead crickets etc left by their web. 

Females of this velvet spider can reach over 2 inches, while the males are smaller, but turn brightly colored when they mature.
