Distance assessment of detours by jumping spiders. [PDF]
Curr Zool, 2020 AbstractTo take an indirect route (detour) in order to reach a specific target requires complex cognitive processes. Yet more demanding, from the cognitive point of view, is when the goal is only visible at the beginning of the detour. In spiders from the family Salticidae, vision is a key sensory modality mediating navigation and prey search.

Scale dependence in hydrodynamic regime for jumping on water
Nature Communications, 2023 Inspired by semi-aquatic animals, such as water striders and fisher spiders, that can exhibit a unique locomotion mechanism involving jumping on water, the authors find the scale dependency of water jumping performance and verify it with a theoretical ...
