Does anyone know what kind of spider this is? I found this in my basement a few minutes ago where children are playing. Anyone know if it is poisonous or venomous? Thank you.
HELP!! What kind of spider is this?
This is a grass/funnel web spider (family Agelenidae) in the genus Agelenopsis - see http://tinyurl.com/2e8thks for an example. Like the vast majority of spiders, it has venom glands, but it is not dangerous to humans. These appear to be quite shy, and about the only way to get bitten would be to pick one up carelessly.
