Curiosa spider I could find in my house yesterday. Is quite large with legs extended, but its fundamental characteristic is that, but it's a spitting spider. Unlike most other weaving a fabric, it is about his victim, measure the distance to the front legs are longer than others and through their chelicerae spits a sticky substance with which paralyzes its prey. The

S. velutina can be distinguished from her sister S. thoracica, because the latter has banded legs. Spiders are "domestic" as always in the corners of houses, moving at night in search of food and rarely found out.

I took it and put it in a pot on the terrace, to avoid scares in the house in case anyone saw it. Most likely to reappear inside the house.
