    Fixed the species ID, great species intro!

    Note: if JungleDragon does not yet know the species, it will look for a Wikipedia page. In that case, it is best to use the binomial name (Dolomedes triton), it is most reliable.     Posted 10 years ago

The Six-spotted fishing spider

Dolomedes triton is an arachnid from the nursery web spider family Pisauridae. These spiders can be seen scampering along the water’s surface when a person walks by in which they are often referred to as dock spiders because they are often witnessed as they quickly vanish through the cracks of a boat dock.
