Understand the functional significance of animal color patterns is one of the central themes in evolutionary ecologists' research. The order Araneae is widely used in studies on animal coloration given that it is a megadiverse and ubiquitous group, with several coloration patterns. The prey attraction hypothesis predicts that some spider species attract their prey by reflecting ultravio...
Many spiders live in narrowly defined environments, limited by physical conditions such as temperature, humidity, wind and light intensity, and also by biological factors such as type of vegetation, availability of prey, competitors and natural enemies. The family Araneidae is the main family of spiders that build orbicular webs. The spider of the present study, Eustala perfida, occurs ...
