Discovery of 40 New Spider Species in Australia

In Australia, 40 new spider species have been discovered. All the species found belong to a group of spiders that build burrows in a Y-shaped form. Each shelter has not only a main entrance but also a hidden one for escaping in case of danger. Over the past six months, scientists have found around 136 samples of such spider burrows. The scientists will now have to describe the new species, catalog them, and assign each one a unique name.
