Adelocosa anops, also known as the Kaua'i Cave Wolf Spider has an interesting nickname: the no-eyed big-eyed wolf spider. It is the only known spider that doesn't have any eyes. Wolf Spiders are referred to as "big-eyed" because of the arrangement of their eight eyes: two large, prominent eyes surrounded by six smaller ones. But, because this particular wolf spider lives in complete darkness, it has evolved a method to track prey through chemical-sensing organs, instead of light-sensing organs, i.e. eyes. So, because it is a variety of wolf spider it is a "big-eyed wolf spider", but since it lives and hunts in total darkness it has no need for eyes--thus it is a "no-eyed big-eyed wolf spider".
