| has gloss | eng: Lycosa is a genus of wolf spiders. More than 200 species are found, represented throughout most of the world. Often (incorrectly) called the "true tarantula", Lycosa can be distinguished from common wolf spiders by their relatively large size. This genus includes the European Lycosa tarantula which was once associated with tarantism, a dubious affliction whose symptoms included shaking, cold sweats, and a high fever, asserted to be curable only by the traditional tarantella dance. There is no scientific substantiation of that myth. In fact, the venom of wolf spiders is much less harmful to humans than, eg, that of the European widow spider of the Theridiidae family. |

| has gloss | nld: Lycosa is een geslacht van spinnen uit de familie wolfspinnen (Lycosidae). De soorten worden tarantula's genoemd, wat voor verwarring zorgt met andere groepen van spinnen. In de Engelse taal worden met de term Tarantulas de grote, harige spinnen uit de familie Theraphosidae aangeduid, beter bekend als de vogelspinnen. Hieraan zijn de kleine en ongevaarlijke Lycosa- soorten echter niet verwant. De naam tarantula is afkomstig van de Italiaanse stad Tarente en werd aanvankelijk alleen gebruikt voor de soort Lycosa tarantula. |

| has gloss | spa: Lycosa es un género de arañas araneomorfas de la familia Lycosidae. El nombre común de estas arañas se presta a confusión; en Europa se conocen con el nombre tarántulas (por la ciudad italiana de Tarento); los colonizadores europeos de América llamaron tarántulas a la grandes arañas migalomorfas que hallaron en ese continente, de manera que, para los americanos, las tarántulas son las grandes migalomorfas americanas, mientras que los licósidos (que en realidad son las tarántulas originales) son denominados arañas lobo (wolf spiders). |
