311: 540:, there is a characteristic spine on the second pair of legs which assists in the mating process. According to this researcher, the presence of the spine allows the females second leg to "lock... in a raised position to enable mating and...prevent descent of the female's fangs". The mating behaviours of funnel web spiders is similar across species, with few species-specific differences. As with hunting, mating also occurs during the night in summer and spring months. After locating a female mate through 37: 489: 450: 685: 704:. The release of venom from the glandular lumen of the spider occurs through contraction of the muscular layers surrounding the venom gland. After contraction, the venom passes through to the fangs of the funnel web spider. The components of the spiders’ venom permit immobilisation of prey from protein substances and contains toxins that interfere with the 472:
The silk trip-lines are arranged in an irregular fashion lining the burrow, which extends roughly the length of an adult forearm. This arrangement allows the spider to be alerted when there are potential prey or predators at the burrow through the consequent vibrations from the silk. According to the

spider bite is the same amongst all funnel web spiders. Pressure bandaging above or below the bite and immobilisation of the individual must be performed immediately if the patient develops signs of systemic envenoming. Pressure immobilisation bandaging first aid is required to delay envenoming and

The female spider differs slightly in size, averaging at 18.84mm in body length and 7.5mm in body width. The characteristics of the dorsal groove is identical to the male species, as is the sternum (4.59mm). The average length of female spider legs is approximately 18.7mm, the first and last pair

For Atrax species specifically, the toxin δ-atracotoxin is responsible for the neurotoxic effects of the venom. According to studies done on newborn mice, the lethal dose of Atrax venom for these mammals is approximately 0.16 mg/kg with a pH of 4.5-5. These toxins interfere with the normal

Following the administration of anti-venom, the patient must be monitored for >24 hours. Acute allergic reactions to anti-venom are a possibility, however the chance of this occurring is unlikely. If the bite is minor and presents no immediate symptoms of envenomation, a minimum four-hour

After the spiderlings hatch from the females' egg sack, they will remain in the burrow until further maturity is reached. For the male Atrax species, this will occur within 3–4 years of being in the burrow, whilst for females, the final moulting process will occur 1–2 years after the male.

The chance of encountering a funnel web spider is increased during the humid, wet months as the male is most active in these conditions as it provides a more favourable environment. Funnel web spiders are commonly found living in sheltered habitats such as under rocks or logs.

to immobilise and liquify its target to aid in digestion. For flying insects, the spider will stand on its hind legs to strike at the insect with its front legs. When threatened, Atrax species will adopt a similar stance, raising their front legs at their potential predator.

to immobilise and break down its victim. During mating, the second leg of the female spider is locked in a raised position by the characteristic dorsal spine on the males second pair of legs. Once locked in the raised position, the male releases his sperm into the females

The adult male and female have a similar appearance, with the female being slightly larger. Females generally have a body length of 18.84mm whilst the male has an average body length between 16-17mm. Both sexes have a matte abdomen with a dark brown/black shiny body.

Most sightings occur during the humid, wet months where male activity is at its highest. Funnel web spiders belonging to the Atrax genus are highly 302:. Pressure immobilisation bandaging (PIB) is used to delay envenoming until an anti-venom is accessible.  An anti-venom for Atrax spider bites has been available since the late 1980s and has saved many lives from funnel web spider envenomation. 804:
should only removed once the patient has been taken to a hospital or medical centre that possesses anti-venom. According to Geoffrey K Isbister, after stabilisation of the airways, two vials of anti-venom should be administered
