The family Segestriidae, commonly known as tube web spiders, belongs to the order Araneae (true spiders). These spiders are recognized for their elongated bodies and the distinctive arrangement of six eyes in three groups, rather than the usual eight seen in many other spiders. They construct tubular silk retreats in crevices, holes, or under bark, extending radial trip lines outward to detect passing prey. When vibrations are sensed, the spider darts out swiftly to seize its target. Found in temperate and tropical regions worldwide, Segestriidae are nocturnal hunters and play an important role in controlling insect populations within their ecosystems.
