Selective Utilization of Microhabitats by Web- building Spiders
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
It is clear that the flexible foraging behavior of web-building spiders has a strong influence on their roles in ecological communities and their position within food webs, and the importance of understanding the nuances of natural-enemy behavior for properly assessing and promoting biological control services is highlighted.
