Funnel spiders (Agelenidae) consist of about 700 species that are found world-wide, particularly in moist climates and forests. They are also commonly called grass spiders because of their preference for living in grasslands. They are collectively called funnel web spiders because their silk-lined webs are constructed in the shape of a funnel. There are variations among the species, but funnel spiders share many of the same characteristics: they produce highly toxic venom and most are considered very dangerous. | Funnel spiders (Agelenidae) consist of about 700 species that are found world-wide, particularly in moist climates and forests.
