Spiders of Borneo, Spiders of Sabah, Malaysia.


Locations of Site Visitors
Welcome to my collection of images for spiders of Borneo.

This represents a record of my humble efforts to photo-document the spiders of Borneo in general and of Sabah in particular. All images here are taken in Borneo and the locations are as stated under each image.

Identification reference and scientific names mainly follow Koh, Joseph K. H., & Bay, Nicky (2019). Borneo Spiders: A Photographic Field Guide. Sabah Forestry Department. Sandakan, Sabah.

Please click on any images below to view the species gallery. Images will be updated as and when new photos are taken, so please bookmark and come back often. Please feel free to leave your comments. Thanks for looking.

Spider identification from photographs should not be definitive in many cases.
For positive identification of many spiders, it is often necessary to examine their copulatory organs under a microscope.

Quote from : Borneo Spiders: A Photographic Field Guide by Joseph K H Koh and Nicky Bay

The gallery images are my Amateurish ID, would be grateful for ID correction.
