  From the exotic and striking Mexican red-knee tarantula, or the venomous black widow, to a tiny money spider, you will find spiders everywhere. They inhabit meadows, ponds, lakes, deserts, jungles and mountains. This identifier shows how spiders differ from other arachnida and illustrates both the structure of spiders and their place in the animal kingdom. Over 100 species are detailed, including information on their habitats, how they make their complex webs and their distribution in the environment. An introduction describes the body of a spider and the concise text provides at-a-glance information.
