Bolas: Bolas spiders are unusual orb-weaver spiders that do not spin the webs. Instead, they hunt by using a sticky 'capture blob' of silk on the end of a line, known as a ' bolas '. By swinging the bolas at flying male moths or moth flies nearby, the spider may snag its prey rather like a fisherman snagging a fish on a hook.
All spiders possess photosensitive microvilli which have the capacity to be sensitive to the polarisation of light, as they preferentially absorb light oscillating parallel to their long axis. These microvilli are arranged orthogonally in the eyes of several families, including jumping spiders , wolf spiders , and nursery web spiders .
Spiders do not have compound eyes, but instead have several pairs of simple eyes with each pair adapted for a specific task or tasks. The principal and secondary eyes in spiders are arranged in four, or occasionally fewer, pairs. Only the principal eyes have moveable retinas. The secondary eyes have a reflector at the back of the eyes.
The spiders are most often observed in railway tunnels and mines since these are more likely to be visited by humans. The young spiders are, after several instars (and in contrast to the adults), strongly attracted to light [ 2 ] —probably an evolutionary adaptation which ensures the spread of the species to new areas (see Life cycle for ...
A spider could do this only a few ways, like using its silk to float and land in a sleeping person's mouth. But Maggie Hardy, biochemist at the University of Queensland, said, "You'd have to be ...
Spiders that spin webs typically have three claws, the middle one being small; hunting spiders typically have only two claws. Since they do not have antennae, spiders use specialised and sensitive setae on their legs to pick up scent, sounds, vibrations and air currents. [6] Some spiders, such as the Australian crab spider, do not have claws.
Spiders are relatively easy pests to get rid of, says Emma Grace Crumbley, entomologist for Mosquito Squad. “They do not have wings and cannot fly away, and while some spiders are speedy and can ...
