It's not a good idea to touch the Loxosceles rufescens (also known as the violin spider because of the violin-shaped mark on its back). It's venomous and can cause a condition called loxoscelism or cutaneous arachnidism, which in severe cases can lead to gangrene.

No es prudente tocar a la Loxosceles rufescens. Es venenosa y puede provocar un cuadro clínico denominado loxoscelismo.

Mit der Loxosceles rufescens sollte man lieber nicht rumfummeln. Sie ist giftig und kann ein Krankheitsbild auslösen, das Loxoscelismus oder kutaner Arachnidismus heißt.

Night sky over a tree top from my dog walk last night. Pocket Universe on my phone tells me the bright star is Sirius.
