    THE TRAP DOOR SPIDER
    Trapdoor Spiders are a medium-sized mygalomorph (an infraorder of spiders), spiders that construct
    burrows with a cork-like trapdoor made of soil, vegetation and silk.
    A Trapdoor spider lives under ground for most of its life. You can find Trapdoor spiders in Japan,
    Africa, South America and North America and many other warm places.
    A Trapdoor spider does not have a web like other spiders do. It has a trapdoor on top of a burrow. A
    Trapdoor spiders burrow is around 30 centimetres deep and 5 centimetres across. Sometimes they like
    to make their burrows beside creeks or rivers so they can catch little fish.
    The trapdoor that these spiders construct is difficult to see when it is closed because of the plant and soil
    materials that effectively camouflage it. The trapdoor is hinged on one side with silk. The spiders, who
    are usually nocturnal, typically wait for prey while holding onto the underside of the door with the claws
    on their tarsi (the cluster of bones in the foot between the tibia and fibula and the metatarsus). Prey is
    captured when insects or other arthropods venture too close to the half-open trapdoor at night. The
    spider detects the prey by vibrations and when it comes close enough, the spider jumps out of its burrow
    and captures it. Female Trapdoor spiders never travel far from their burrows.
