Excellent series. The Mouhot's rolled leaf spider is among the most bizarrely-shaped spiders you have photographed.

Thanks for looking and commenting, Luggerbugs, tejaswrangler, Douglass. Much appreciated.

Douglass - i think Poltys mouhoti is one of my favorite spiders!

I am sure those creatures only exist in my dreams after eating dill pickles before bed. Indeed remarkable, both the photos and the design of these beings. Thank you for sharing.
