Spider communities in the aboveground oak forests of central Europe are determined by vertical scale: An important missing link for biodiversity conservation

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 186, Issue 3, Page 288-301, May 2025.
Abundance of spiders and species richness increased from the ground level to the canopy in oak forests. Spiders with some specific ecological traits in the sample (such as hunting strategy, dispersal ability, occurrence and light requirements) are specifically distributed in the vertical direction.

Super‐Tough Silk: The Potential of Knots in Evolved Spiders

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 15, April 10, 2025.
The toughness of spider silk can be further significantly enhanced if spiders evolved the –currently absent/undiscovered– ability to tie knots in their silk. The results on 393 spiders suggest toughness increments by one or two orders of magnitude and thus a new perspective on how knotting can serve as a key innovation in spider evolution and in ...

Urbanization Impacts Top Predators and Alters Biotic Interactions in Predator–Prey–Mutualistic Communities of Urban Dry Grasslands

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 15, Issue 1, January 2025.
We investigated multitrophic interactions involving insect‐pollinated plants, pollinators, spiders, and sand lizards in both highly urbanized and less urbanized areas of Berlin. Our findings indicate that urbanization significantly affects higher trophic levels and biotic interactions, with intertrophic relationships only observed in less urbanized ...
