grey spider that looks like a black widow?
daniela holmqvist
as of 2012, researchers at the university of california, riverside, suggested that the brown widow spider, newly established in southern california, may in fact be displacing black widow spiders from the region, competing and/or fighting for territory. while certainly not definitive, this evidence does suggest that the brown widow is likely to be more hostile and aggressive towards its relative, the black widow, than the black widow is towards it. if that proves to be true, humans may be positively affected since, while brown widows are not less venomous than black widows, they inject less venom than a black widow would, thus posing less of a threat and making the area safer as they aggressively eradicate and replace the black widows over time.
