The diving bell spider is the only species of spider known to live almost entirely under water. They do so by building a diving bell of irregularly constructed sheets of silk which they then inflate with air brought down from the surface. Humans unlucky to disturb this marine arachnid can expect a painful bite that causes localized inflammation, vomiting, and slight feverishness that disappears within a few days.
