Malthonica silvestris (Family: Agelenidae)
The is considered to be a rare spider usually found in caves or near forest edges. It has been previously described as Tegenaria silvestris. In some of the photos the web of this spider and the retreat opening are clearly visible. We found this spider at the low part of Vouraikos gorge, in North Peloponnese, Greece.
