Description

A scrappy expanse of silky refuges and capture webs littered with body parts of previous victims. When preferred prey is entangled, the female spiders emerge from their 'nests' and overpower it by grabbing its extremities. In this case, a wasp https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/9319446.
Presumably they inject venom because after a minute or so the prey stops struggling. Then they snip it out of the web and carry it into one of several 'nests' or refuges.
Unwanted prey, often beetles (see https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/9319435 ) are also killed but sometimes left in the web, uneaten. Ants, in this case, Maranoplus ( https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/9319390 )scavenge around the periphery of the webs, feasting on unwanted beetles or other left-overs.

I was lucky enough to have this fellow fly over my head and land in a tree, then having got my attention, fly to a pond and begin wading about. Most of the surface was dull at this hour, but there was a sweet spot, so I waited as he did his rounds skulking through the murk and waited for him to pass through the pools of color from the (just turning) autumnal foliage.

Solution for all who are still wondering: The plastic rattle snake has been put in the entrance of the camp kitchen as a deterrent against the local troop of Malbrouck Monkeys, which used to raid the stored food, and surprisingly they never ever entered the kitchen since then.

This skink, however, equipped with astounding cognitive abilities, shows off with his balls of steel.

Err, I think it's a female....

NOTE

There are possibly two collections here. Online references are very ambiguous about which is which, to the extent that they are separate collections from separate parts of Chiapas at all. The two locations I’ve been able to find are

Soconusco, Chiapas, Mexico (http://www2.tap-ecosur.edu.mx/hongos/)

and

Las Cabañas, Cantón Providencia, Tapachula, Chiapas, Mexico (article below)

I’m pretty sure the man with the mustache is Rene Andrade. The other two are, for the moment, unknown. I’m posting below what has proven to be the most comprehensive article on these possibly identical, possibly separate Chiapan Macrocybe finds from June 2007, as well as all the images I’ve been able to find of both men with both/the same mushroom(s). All photo credits are tentatively listed as belonging to El Colegio de la Frontera Sur (Ecosur):

from http://www.cronica.com.mx/notas/2007/311305.html:


Hallan hongo gigante en Chiapas

Notimex en San Cristóbal de Las Casas | Academia | Fecha: 11-jul-07

El Colegio de la Frontera Sur (Ecosur) reportó el hallazgo de un hongo gigante con diámetro y altura de 70 centímetros en ambas escalas, y 20 kilogramos de peso, lo que lo haría el más grande de su especie encontrado en Chiapas. En un comunicado, la institución reportó que el mes pasado personal del Ecosur halló un hongo gigante en Las Cabañas, Cantón Providencia, municipio de Tapachula, a unos kilómetros de la frontera con Guatemala. Trabajadores de la línea Manejo Integrado de Plagas, que realizaban una práctica de campo en el lugar, fueron informados por pobladores de la región sobre la existencia del hongo gigante. Al acudir y ver sus dimensiones, reportaron el hallazgo al personal de la línea Hongos Tropicales de la misma institución. El curador de la colección micológica del Ecosur, René Andrade, viajó con otras personas al lugar para colectar el hongo, particularmente sobresaliente por su tamaño y su poca frecuencia en México. Según el informe, el hongo pesa más de 20 kilogramos, tiene una altura y diámetro de 70 centímetros en ambos casos. El hongo fue trasladado a la sede del Ecosur en Tapachula para ser estudiado; los especialistas determinaron que se trata de una especie que ya había sido encontrada anteriormente en Chiapas. Agregó al respecto que ya tienen dos ejemplares más de esa especie vegetal, uno de ellos de 50 centímetros de diámetro (colectado en fragmentos). El otro espécimen fresco medía 25 centímetros de diámetro. Su nombre científico es Macrocybe Titans Pegler, Lodge y Nakasone y es sinónimo de Tricholoma cistidiosa Cifuentes y Guzmán. Dicha especie fue reportada como nueva para México en 1981, dentro del Parque Educativo Laguna de Bélgica, municipio de Ocozocuautla, también en Chiapas. De acuerdo con el Ecosur, hay reportes que indican la presencia de este hongo también en áreas de Guatemala, Costa Rica y Brasil. La institución añadió que no hay informes que refieran que la especie encontrada sea comestible o nociva. Aparentemente su función en la naturaleza es reciclar la materia orgánica de la misma forma que los demás organismos de su reino. El hongo gigante pasó a formar parte de la Colección Micológica de Ecosur, la cual está integrada por más de cinco mil ejemplares de hongos de diferentes partes del estado de Chiapas, especialmente del Soconusco. Integra ya también los registros del padrón de colecciones de la Comisión Nacional para el Conocimiento y Uso de la Biodiversidad (CONABIO). La Colección Micológica del Ecosur, que resalta por su ubicación en una zona tropical húmeda, se mantiene con fines de investigación y de docencia y como un apoyo importante para el conocimiento de la biodiversidad de México.


Dates inferred from time-stamps, though this may only pertain to one of the two collections, provided they are, in fact, distinct.
