LD50 value: 0.25

We are continuing our list of most venomous spiders in the world with this indigenous spider species in southern Australia. It is easily recognized by the red glossy head, but which is only red in males. Females, on the other hand, are evenly colored in black and sometimes have red jaws. They are also slightly larger than males. Although their venom is highly toxic, bites are very rare, and this spider is not considered to be a dangerous one.
