Adanson’s House Jumper
Small Web Spider
Body length about 1.5 mm long. Leg length about 2 cm long.
Daddy Longlegs
Spider body length = 2 mm.
Per Frank Howarth at the Bishop Museum: “I cannot be sure from the photo, but the pattern and general form match the recently introduced cobweb spider, Theridion melanostictum Cambridge, 1876 (Family Theridiidae). This species is occasionally abundant on foliage in urban and agricultural areas, and the males (which this is) are wanderers and therefore noticed.”
Cobweb Spider
This tiny spider is only 1 mm long.
1 mm Spider
The Jackson's Chameleon, native to Kenya and Tanzania, was introduced on Oahu in 1972. This specimen is an adult male.
House Spider
Dorsal side. Body length about 1 cm. Argiope appensa is an Orb Weaver type of spider that occurs on several islands in the Western Pacific Ocean. It has been introduced to Hawai'i, and is found on Taiwan and New Guinea. It inhabits a wide variety of habitats, from coasts to forests.
Hawaiian Garden Spider
Yellow Sac Spider
Body length about 1 cm. Leg length about 6 cm. Spitting spiders catch their prey by spitting a fluid consisting of silk and venom that congeals on contact into a sticky mass.
Spitting Spider
Cane Spider
Spider less than 1mm in length.
Red Spider Mite
Unknown Small Red Spider
Cellar Spider (aka Pale Daddy Long-legs)
Per Frank Howarth of the Bishop Museum “This spider is a cellar spider (Pholcidae) and probably the common Smeringopus pallidus (Blackwall, 1858).”
Stripe-leg Garden Spider
Dorsal view close-up. Body length is 2 mm.
Per Frank Howarth of the Bishop Museum: “This one is most likely Zosis geniculatus (Olivier, 1789), family Uloboridae. Zosis spiders make an orb web, but it is often at an angle or horisontal rather than vertical like the true orb weavers. They also use at least some hackled threads to catch prey. The orb weavers use glue.”
Humped Spider
Arrow-back Web Spider
