User's notes

The first and last images have been rotated 90 degrees anti-clockwise to simplify viewing of the white parasite attached to the spider. The spider was sighted on the same Eucalyptus rossii as the Two-tailed spider of sighting 4208501. They were separated by a small distance and at one time, facing each other. Thanks to Marcus Leach for the initial sighting.
