Mating of MegaphobemaQuite a difference in the sizes of the male and female, isn’t it? In fact, the males of this species are quite large, their paws no smaller than the females. In this case, the author simply placed an adult male with a small female. For which the public rightly criticized him in the comments under the publication. Probably these are just siblings, of which the male came out on time, as he should, and the female has not yet matured enough to mate. You might think that they mated, the female let him in, so everything is ok. There is one BUT. It happens that large males who are very eager for s*x simply “break” females, so to speak, against their will. Just think, spider violence happens not only towards males, but vice versa. There will be a separate publication about the adulthood of females and their readiness to mate. Let me just remind you that the consequences of early mating of females end either simply in molting. This can also lead to wet molting, and even just random deaths.
