Webs: Diversity, Structure and Function,ure of spider webs varies substantially between species, and web building has even been lost completely in some clades. Examples of different web forms include the classic orb webs, which may be orientated vertical to the ground or horizontal, sheet webs, and cobwebs, which consist of three-dimensio

Spiders as Plant Partners: Complementing Ant Services to Plants with Extrafloral Nectaries,d their natural enemies. The top-down forces exerted by invertebrate predators on herbivores, and their cascading effect on plants, are very important to community structuring. Among major invertebrate predators, ants exert a strong impact on the density and spatial distribution of leaf and floral h

Plasticity and Cognition in Spiders,as webs, cocoons, draglines or retreats, allows for the experimental manipulation of these silken structures, and thus for a controlled study of the cognitive machinery that underlie the use and construction of these structures. There are contrasting theories about cognition, and we explore particul

Anti-Predator Strategies,e of these organisms (e.g., wasp species and araneophagic spiders) are spider-hunting specialists. A number of morphological structures and behaviours in spiders have been proposed to be anti-predator adaptations. They comprise strategies such as background matching, disruptive patterns, web decorat
