	The Black Widow is one of the deadliest poisonous spiders to be found on Roundworld. It must evidently have a Discworld analogue, as its use in this context does not seem to be accidental. Like all spiders, the Black Widow is larger and deadlier than the male, and once the male has ceased to be of use while alive, the female will not think twice before killing and devouring him. In fact, she may not even think once.		The Black Widow is one of the deadliest poisonous spiders to be found on Roundworld.
