Technically, I'm pretty sure they're part of africa. But I'm tired and I'm probably thinking of some other archepilago of islands...

as far as i know the Canary islands are on the North-West coast of Africa and belong to Spain (or did belong ?) :?

Biggest European mainland wolfspider should be:
Allohogna singoriensis 4cm while
Lycosa tarantella = 3cm
