Article on the subject can be seen here: http://www.americanarachnology.or..._free/JoA_v18_n1/JoA_v18_p118.pdf

Fungal contamination of a Drosophila melanogaster culture led to deaths of spiderlings. Mucor hiemalis f. hiemalis was the culprit.

Treatment was only marginally successful (20-30% survival).

Infection method was not able to be completely determined, most likely booklungs/small injuries.
