Description
Pretty leggy huntsman. Taken at night in Singapore forest.
Quote from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Huntsman…
Huntsman spiders, members of the family Sparassidae (formerly Heteropodidae), are known by this name because of their speed and mode of hunting. They also are called giant crab spiders because of their size and appearance. Larger species sometimes are referred to as wood spiders, because of their preference for woody places (forests, mine shafts, woodpiles, wooden shacks). In southern Africa the genus Palystes are known as rain spiders or lizard-eating spiders.[1] Commonly they are confused with baboon spiders from the Mygalomorphae infraorder, which are not closely related.
More than a thousand Sparassidae species occur in most warm temperate to tropical regions of the world, including much of Australasia, Africa, Asia, the Mediterranean Basin, and the Americas.

that is one of the coolest spiders ever. I just love it. I think if I ever visited your country I might never leave. I might just stay in the forest and never ever come out. there is such cool things in there!
