The Role of Silk in the Behaviour and Sociality of Spiders
Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 This article describes the links between the production of silk by spiders and their behaviour. Silk allows the spider to change its physical environment, which in turn leads to behavioural changes and impacts in the new environment. The feedback between silk and the animal producer can explain the architecture of spider webs and their adaptation to ...
