Takydromus formosanus is not a spider, but a species of lizard commonly known as the Formosan grass lizard. It is native to Taiwan and typically found in grasslands, farmlands, and low-elevation forests. This small, slender lizard is known for its elongated body and tail, which is often much longer than its body. It is highly agile and swift, using its speed to escape predators and catch prey, which mainly consists of small insects. Takydromus formosanus is diurnal, active during the day, and plays an important role in controlling insect populations in its habitat. |
