Silkhenge spider

[khatchet]

How many of you have seen this yet. I have not researched them at all yet, but they seem cool. What does everyone else think of them?

 

[khatchet]

It does not look like there are any reliable sites with info, not that i can see any way. If any o you know good sites with info let me know.

Weird, I found this article about them http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencet...tonehenge-like-web-spun-mystery-arachnid.html

You might s well have read it in the National Inquirer... the Daily Mail isn't exactly credible...

I saw this on discovery channel a while back..dont remember the details, but nature channels are wrong on facts quite often as well..

That was my problem i could not find anything cretidble when reading up on them

Yeah I literally just watched a youtube video of this spiders strange behavior.. the video claims they can be found Peru... but I agree 100% on being skeptical.. because the video I watched seemed sketchy.. I also seen another story that seemed fake.. a story of a chinese farmer supposidly finding a unique also thought to be extinct (that entire phrase to me is a red flag) type of jumping spider and on its rump was some strange designs.. it looked super fake

interesting article @Enn49 they look to me like an orb weaver, just from the abdomen.

Wish i could find some good info on them but what is out there is still intresting, even if it has to be tacken as not for sure be fact. I will be keeping a look out for more stuff on them to turn up.

Is this more believable? http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2016/12/silkhenge-spiders-ecuador-mystery/

I like your first page better, I am not a big natgeo fan see this post to most false info on things.

 

[khatchet]

Even with the ones like that though there is not raelly any info about the spider it self.

I like the natgeo one better, it's more informative.

 

[Tricocyst]

national geographic has more credibility. I would be willing to believe an article from natgeo with little to no skepticisms.
