Spiders or better known by their scientific name, Hyllus keratodes, are a type of insect that is often found around us. This spider usually lives in tropical areas and has excellent hunting abilities. Even though spiders are often considered scary animals, they actually have a very important role in the ecosystem.

Spiders are natural predators of other insects which are usually considered plant pests. They help maintain the balance of the ecosystem by preying on insects that can damage plants. Apart from that, spiders are also food for several other animals such as birds and lizards, so they are also an important part of the food chain.

Hyllus keratodes has distinctive characteristics that differentiate it from other types of spiders. They have a body color that is usually brown or black with attractive motifs. Apart from that, these spiders also have excellent jumping abilities, so they can quickly chase their prey. This makes them very effective predators in hunting.
