The Sydney Funnel web Spider (Atrax robustus) is found in in New South Wales on the east coast of Australia, between Newcastle and Nowra and west to Lithgow. They prefer the forested upland areas surrounding the lower, more open country of the central Cumberland Basin. These include the Hornsby Plateau to the north, the foothills of the Blue Mountains to the west, and the Woronora Plateau to the south. Funnel web occurrence is low in much of central western Sydney, and also the sandy coastal parts of the eastern suburbs and the botany Bay area. They prefer areas of sandy clay, shale or basaltic soils that can retain moisture more effectively.
