binomial_authority = Lawrence, 1962"Leucorchestris arenicola" (commonly called white lady) is a spider found in the deserts of
Namibia . It relies on seismic vibrations for communication. It taps its foremost legs on the sand to send messages to other white lady spiders. Male white lady spiders will travel more than a mile in one night searching for a mate. If they do find a mate, they must be extremely careful, for drumming the wrong message can be deadly. They are successful only half of the time.Fact|date=February 2007
