with some luck in more southern europe you can find Lycosa tarantula/singoriensis which is a gorgeous wolf.

A figure from a scientific publication with a geological time scale at the bottom (Left to right, Carboniferous to today). It shows morphological size trends in representatives of Schizomida, as well as an outgroup species and a related species, over geological time. While the outgroup and related species show miniturization and diversification from the Carboniferous to the Cretaceous, representatives of Schizomida show a secondary size cain from the Cretaceous to the modern day.
My good friends @jellybb.bsky.social and @rianbraig.bsky.social have finally both made it to Bluesky, so now it's time to re-share our passion-project paper from earlier this year! We looked at cool morphological trends over time in short-tailed whip scorpions! sjpp.springeropen.com/articles/10....

💬 thought experiment: Invertebrates are 97% of all animals and there's 6 fungi per plant sp.
How would this #WWF report look, if we cared about all biodiversity?
🧮 we would have found 1038 Fungi and 2069 Inverts - but none of those groups were even mentioned
