“The courtship starts with the male grasping the female’s pedipalps with his own; the pair then perform a “dance” called the “promenade à deux”. In this “dance,” the male leads the female around searching for a suitable place to deposit his spermatophore. The courtship ritual can involve several other behaviours such as juddering and a cheliceral kiss, in which the male’s chelicerae – pincers – grasp the female’s in a smaller more intimate version of the male’s grasping the female’s pedipalps and in some cases injecting a small amount of his venom into her pedipalp or on the edge of her cephalothorax, probably as a means of pacifying the female.”
