funnel-web
Deadly Sydney spider
A funnel-web is a spider that builds a funnel-shaped web, using the narrow end as a retreat while waiting for prey to stumble onto the broad sheet.
Australian funnel-web spiders are among the world's most venomous, capable of killing humans: Sydney funnel-webs are aggressive and their bites require immediate antivenom.
