That's why they are called selfie sticks

A little busy with work now so I'm holding off trips for a bit. I'll be hunting for eyeless huntsman spiders towards the end of the year!

Let's do BugShot in the tropics! Did you go to Costa Rica?

On a good day, I should scream more. Either when I find something cool and screaming at everyone else to come over, or screaming nuuuuuuu for not telling me when they find something cool just next to me. 😂

The specific epithet vaginatus is derived from Latin, meaning "sheath". Not too uncommonly used in the naming of animals and plants.

No, single shots. They are quite big.

The larvae will go after spider eggs.

Sure, here are some shots of the male and some with the pair.

Other photos are here if you need more:

Thanks! Are there any images online of the little blobs with legs? How do they mate with others after the permanent anchor to the plant?

Your illustration seems to be of Pyrops gunjii instead. The apical process (snout) can lose its original colour in preserved specimens.

Thanks Naufal! We also have specimens from Borneo and peninsular Malaysia, but nobody knows what they are.
