there is a cat face on the cephalothorax of this eratigena agrestis male lol

#Spiders #inverts #spinnen #arachnid

pretty large Eratigena atrica man on the look for the ladies (and thusly, death)

the pattern on his cephalothorax look kinda cat-like to me

same picture as above: a spider body lenght about the lenght of one 3rd of a finger, very long quite hairy legs (hair black, legs light creame) the abdomen is a bit thin, also light cream brown, like sand or pudding with a pretty dark patttern looking ike a row of 3 going down till his spinnerets

also i drew the cat face thing on him

A pale, translucent Corophium amphipod in side view, walking across wet grey estuarine mud on its long banded antennae and front legs, with glistening sediment in the background.

A bright red velvet mite, plush and densely furred, walking over coarse damp sand mixed with tiny shell fragments and strands of green algae.

A small orange-brown predatory mesostigmatid mite with a smooth, glossy oval body, standing on rippled wet mud, its pale forelegs extended ahead like feelers.

A slate-blue sea springtail, Anurida maritima, its plump segmented body covered in fine white hairs, crawling across shiny waterlogged mud, with a much smaller pale springtail visible below.
