IMG_1163-0(W) David Bowie spider (Heteropoda davidbowie)
Location: Malaysia
DB is one of the cutest spiders in Malaysia. It rarely run away when disturbed but choose to curl up (see photo) with all eight legs tightly tugged in.
The female David Bowie spider is similar to the male in appearance, but its colour may vary from white, grey to red-brown and the ringed pattern on its legs is more conspicuous, with dark spots across the brighter areas. There are also six large red areas on the rear section of the upperside of the body. As with all spiders, it can be assumed that the female David Bowie spider is larger than the male
