Only In Australia

[Baccus]

We all know that Australia has some pretty weird and wonderful wildlife but I think this latest discovery might just have to be the icing on the cake.

A spider thats not ugly

Ooh how cute!

What would it eat?

 

[Baccus]

Very small critters

. It probably eats mites or some such other small insect.
Just goes to show, everything has not already been found. And what is really scary is there is probably some even smaller critter that is predating on or parasiting on this Jelly bean Spider.

A new species of brightly coloured snake has been found in a remote area of Tanzania in East Africa.

The striking black-and-yellow snake measures 60 cm (2 ft) and has horn-like scales above its eyes.

The newly discovered snake, named Matilda's horned viper, has been described in the journal Zootaxa.

 

[Ch4rlie]

A tiny, tiny spider, only 1mm long 

 
Unlikely you will ever see it unless deliberately looking for it.
 
Interesting little article

Not really that new. I think this was discovered more than a year ago

What would it eat?

A spider that small would be a micropredator would probably feed on mites, lice, fleas, fruit flies and other bugs its size.

It looks more like a crab though
