Out of the darkness: A new spider found deep within an Indiana cave



Date: June 28, 2018
Source: Pensoft Publishers

Summary:
A small cave in southern Indiana turned out to be the one and only home of a new species of spider, now going by the name Islandiana lewisi. The dark, wet, muddy cave near the Ohio River was apparently the perfect match for this previously unknown sheet weaver. The spider measures about 2 mm in size.
