Those spiders are quite large but it's ground dwelling spiders that are the most dangerous. The females make a large web which is very strong. Walking into it pulls you up quite rapidly. Backing out it comes off without breaking and leaving a messy web over your face. They're good that way.

This is the fern I found in Papua New Guinea which I believe is Sticherus species, but a giant form. It was quite impressive.
