Very sad news indeed.
One of the fathers of modern Arachnology has just passed away, Norm Platnick. A legend whose effort, work and dedication have been the base and source of inspiration for many arachnologists around the world. Our heartfelt condolences!

Just heard the terrible news that Norman Platnick is in ER from a fall down the stairs. The latest we have heard that he is unresponsive following a fractured skull and bleeding on his brain. 😔
