Researchers in Australia have made a big discovery: a super-sized species of trapdoor spider found only in Central Queensland.
The arachnid has been dubbed Euoplos dignitas, a name “derived from the Latin dignitas meaning dignity or greatness, reflecting the impressive size and nature of the spider,” scientists with the Queensland Museum said in a statement.
The spider lives in open woodland habitats and builds its burrows in the black soils of the Brigalow Belt in Central Queensland, which is on the northeastern coast of Australia.
