Button spider is a common name used in Southern Africa to refer to local members of the spider genus, Latrodectus, the family Theridiidae. There are both black and brown button spiders in Southern Africa, that are known elsewhere as widow spiders.[1][2][3] Seven Latrodectus species can be found in Southern Africa; six of them are native, one is possibly imported.[2]
