Badumna insignis (L.Koch, 1872)

Домашній чорний павук (лат. Badumna insignis — бадумна блискуча) — це звичайний вид австралійського павука, який поширений у Новій Зеландії та Японії. Останнім часом набув поширення у Європі, зокрема спалахами у Грузії та Україні. Вид Badumna insignis не слід плутати із Badumna longinqua, або ж домашнім сірим павуком, що має схоже поширення, але також зустрічається і в Америках. Вид спершу був названий Amaurobius insignis Людвігом Карлом Крістіаном Кохом 1872 року, але впродовж років він був відомий під загальною назвою Ixeuticus, аж допоки Майк Грей не вніс корективи, назвавши павука Badumna insignis у 1983 році.
