Overview

This work reflects on the current areas of interest for researchers working with spiders, scorpions and related animals in Europe. It contains 46 research articles and reviews covering a wide range of disciplines such as ecology and conservation, behaviour, physiology, morphology and systematics. A particular section is devoted to reproductive behaviour, with papers on sexual selection, sperm competition, emasculation and sexual cannibalism in spiders. Silk, the structure and function of spider webs and how they are built, form another study area. Other themes explored include the biodiversity and conservation value of spider communities from several types of habitats, the value of spiders for agriculture, systematic classification of spiders and local faunistics.
