It's not hard to find out: the striped spider is the most perfect spider I know, both in terms of demeanor and color. Its chubby, hazelnut-sized body has yellow, black, and silver stripes, hence its name "Striped Spider".

Introduction. The book is divided into ten volumes, each volume is divided into 17 and 25 chapters, each chapter describes the life of one or several insects in detail and profoundly, and includes some biographical articles that tell about experiences and reminiscences of the past. In the book, the author describes the tireless efforts of small insects to survive and reproduce by the rules of nature.

Based on his lifelong experience and achievements in insect research, the author looks at insect nature with humanization, reflects social life with insect nature, focuses on the external morphology and biological habits of insects he observes and researches, and truly records the instincts, habits, labor, and death of several common insects.

Because there are stripes, they are called striped spiders. In "Insects", the striped spider got its name because it has yellow, black, and silver stripes, so it is called a striped spider.

The striped spider catches its prey with the large web, which climbs on the branches of nearby trees. The web of the striped spider is similar to that of other species of spiders: the radial spider silk spreads from ** to all sides, and then a circle of spirals is continuously coiled on top of it, from ** to the edge.

The whole net is very large and symmetrical.

In the lower part of the web, there is a thick and wide band that bends from the center along the spokes until the edges, which is the mark of the striped spider's work and a kind of signature of the striped spider in the work.

Because it has stripes, it is called a striped spider, and its characteristics are determined by the growth environment and growth genes.

Spiders feed on pod insects such as butterflies, damselflies, mosquitoes, bees, etc.

Some spiders also feed on small animals. Jumping spiders are good at seeing, and can dive within 30 centimeters to catch prey and pounce on it. Crab spiders wait for their prey on flowers that are similar to their body color.

Spiders burrowing in the earth build burrows lined with silk, and the entrance of the burrow has a trap that opens at night to prey on insects that pass through the hole. funnel spiders weave funnel webs, and insects fall into the nets to cause vibration; The spider itself resides in a filament tube with a narrow end that leads into a plant or a crevice in a rock.

The spider is a carnivorous insect, which means that it eats meat, so it's any.

It eats small insects, not just striped spiders.
