Indoors in Pokhara, Nepal. 7-10 centimeter leg span. This is an iPhone picture. Nobody was willing to tell the photographer about the huge spider in her room until she had packed her real camera and was leaving.

Hi John, Sparassidae. Possibly Heteropoda venatoria, originally from south east Asia, meanwhile cosmopolitic. http://wiki.eu-ar..._venatoria Best regards, Jürgen -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Juergen Peters Borgholzhausen, Germany WWW: http://insektenfo... -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= |
