Scientists in the United States have discovered a highly venomous species of spider that can live an astonishing 20 years. According to Mail Online, this new species of spider has been discovered in Miami, Florida, USA. This type of spider is bright black in color. They are similar to the pre-existing Tarn Tala type of spider but are much more venomous.
According to the report, the legs of this type of spider are much longer than that of normal spiders and the size is also bigger. The male spider is about the size of a pound coin, while the female is two to three times larger. The species has been dubbed Ummidia by scientists. "This type of spider can live up to two decades," said Frank Ridley, head of the Miami Conservation. Their nets are burrow-like and they spend most of their lives waiting for prey in these nets. ”
