An Economic Dilemma between Molecular Weapon Systems May Explain an Arachno-Atypical Venom in Wasp Spiders (Argiope bruennichi) [PDF]
Spiders use venom to subdue their prey, but little is known about the diversity of venoms in different spider families. Given the limited data available for orb-weaver spiders (Araneidae), we selected the wasp spider Argiope bruennichi for detailed ...

Winter Temperature Affects Fatty Acid Composition and Gene Expression, but Not Fat Content and Survival in a Northern Population of a Range‐Expanding Spider [PDF]
Species expand their geographic distribution when environmental conditions are favorable or when mutations arise that allow them to live in previously unfavorable conditions.

Bitte um Mitarbeit: Populationsdynamik und weitere Ausbreitung der Wespenspinne (Argiope bruennichi) in M-Europa [PDF]
The wasp spider Argiope bruennichi (Scopoli, 1772) is of Mediterranean-Pontian origin, but for decades it has been expanding northwards, including into the territory of Poland. Based on well-documented expansion records, we can distinguish “old” (south-eastern and south-western) and “new” populations (north-eastern), respectively, from the 1930s to the

Argiope bruennichi in the structure of orb-weaver spider communities In this study, 1717 spider individuals from 16 species were collected in two regions: the Sandomierz Basin (SAN) in the south and the Mazury Lake District (MAZ) in the north of Poland (Table 2).

Abstract The physical factors of Argiope bruennichi (Araneae, Araneidae) that influence the stabilimentum decoration on the web, a conspicuous white silk structure reflecting much more ultraviolet light than other spider silks in the web, have been poorly understood.

Zur Arealerweiterung von Argiope bruennichi (Araneae: Araneidae) in Deutschland - wie genau sind unsere frühen Daten? [PDF]
The areal expansion of Argiope bruennichi (Scopoli, 1772) in Germany has been pretty accurately documented in the last few decades. From the early expansion phase around 1900, however, there exist only few detailed facts.

Complete mitogenomes of two orb-weaver spiders, Argiope bruennichi and Araneus ventricosus
We performed high-throughput sequencing on the complete mitogenomes of two Araneidae species, a wasp spider (Argiope bruennichi) and a large nocturnal spider (Araneus ventricosus). The two mitogenomes contain 14,060 bp and 14,607 bp, and GC content of 26.

Mate availability does not influence mating strategies in males of the sexually cannibalistic spider Argiope bruennichi [PDF]
Background Sexual selection theory predicts that male investment in a current female should be a function of female density and male competition. While many studies have focused on male competition, the impact of female density on male mating investment ...
