Rare yellow spider named after David Bowie
A newly-discovered spider has been named after rock star David Bowie, in an effort to raise awareness about the number of arachnid species threatened with extinction.
Bowie was apparently selected for the honour because of his musical contribution to arachnid world - the 1972 concept album The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars.
