"Scientific name"
editAll the scientific names in the table are in the Genus spp. form, which means "unspecified species of that genus". Is this the best way of lableing them? It's certainly wrong in the case of the hobo spider, as that is one particular species (Tegenaria agrestis). Conversely, "black widow", as far as I can tell, refers to all Latrodectus, so do we need the "spp." suffix, or would it be enough just to give the genus? (As an aside, are Latrodectus, "widow spider" and "black widow spider" synonymous? Widow spider redirects to Latrodectus, but black widow spider has its own article, which however seems to treat them as being identical with Latrodectus - which suggests one article is redundant).
