== Spiders included == Almost all of the familiar spiders are included in the Araneomorphae group, one major exception being the [[tarantula]]s. There are a few other Mygalomorphae species that live around homes or gardens, but they typically are relatively small and not easily noticed. The Araneomorphae, to the contrary, include the [[Orb-weaver spider|weavers of spiral webs]]; the [[Tangle web spider|cobweb spiders]] that live in the corners of rooms, and between windows and screens; the [[crab spider]]s that lurk on the surfaces of flowers in gardens; the [[jumping spider]]s that are visible hunting on surfaces; the [[wolf spider]]s that carpet hunting sites in sunny spots; and the large [[huntsman spider]]s.
