A male Olios giganteus. Golden huntsman spider. Very harmless. Species Olios giganteus – BugGuide.Net
Thanks mate. It crawled out of my shirt as I was about to put it on. Freaked me out.
Spiders do tend to startle people when they mysteriouly appear out of nowhere. Huntsman are good at that.
You found this in barot, Himachal Pradesh?
Yeah. I ran into a black scorpion up in the mountains of Kashmir last year. Really cool to see them.
