SPIDER GALLERY: Southeast Asia is home to 69* of the 117 spider families found throughout the world. I have photographed spiders representing less than a dozen of the 69 Southeast Asian families. In the picture mosaic above, each thumbnail image represents a family. Click on a thumbnail image to
view photos of species in that family. (* This number given in An Introduction to the Spiders of South East Asia written by Frances and John Murphy may have changed since its publication by the Malaysian Nature Society in the year 2000 as new species are being discovered and documented.)
