trap-door spider
A trap-door spider is a type of spider typically belonging to the family Ctenizidae, characterized by their behavior of constructing burrows with a cork-like trapdoor made of soil, vegetation, and silk. These spiders are found in various environments around the world. They are ambush predators, waiting for prey to come near their burrow before capturing them. The "trap-door" is almost invisible from outside due to its camouflage, allowing them to effectively trap their prey. The term 'trap-door spider' can refer to several species which exhibit this behavior.
