Red Widow (Latrodectus bishopi)

Red widows (Latrodectus bishopi) are strikingly beautiful spiders that are native exclusively to central and southeastern Florida. They are one of the most sought after Latrodectus species in the captive hobby and are not available nearly as often as other US Latrodectus.  Currently available specimens include both captive bred and field-collected animals. *Please be aware that this species possesses medically significant venom.*
