Abstract:

Spiders weave intricate webs for catching prey, providing shelter and setting mating rituals; arguably the most notable of these creations is the orb web. In this thesis we model the essential vibrations of orb webs by first considering a spider web as a multilinked structure of elastic strings. We then solve the associated eigenvalue problem using a Chebyshev pseudospectral collocation method to discretize the system. This thesis first examines the vibrations of webs with uniform material properties throughout, then investigates the effects of using biologically realistic material parameters

Abstract:

Scandinavian populations of Pityohyphantes phrygianus have been observed to maintain a female biased sex ratio and exhibit a high infection prevalence of the maternally inherited bacteriumWolbachia. Previous research has suggested a role for female control in offspring sex ratio and that the direction of this relationship may be influenced by the Wolbachia infection status of the male (Gunnarsson et al. 2009). This study is the first to compare Scandinavian populations with a previously unstudied UK population. Analyses suggest that Wolbachia infection and reproductive behaviours are intrinsic

Abstract:

Circadian rhythms are endogenous molecular clocks that correspond to the 24-hour day and are regulated by light stimulus, allowing organisms to entrain to the dawn-dusk cycle. These clocks may allow organisms to anticipate daily events, influencing their behavior. In arthropods, including spiders, circadian rhythmicity is tested using activity monitors, which house individuals in tubes. However, this does not reflect the natural habitat of many spiders. We compared the locomotor activity of the cellar spider Pholcus phalangiodes in activity monitors with the locomotor activity in web boxes. Af

Abstract:

Natural enemies are members of complex ecological communities, and their ability to contribute to the biological control of pest organisms is strongly influenced by a convoluted network of ecological interactions with many other organisms within these communities. Researchers must develop an understanding of the mechanisms that shape trophic webs to predict and promote top-down effects of predators. The behavior of predators can have a strong influence on their potential as biological control agents. Web-building spiders are a useful example organism for the study of natural enemy behavior bec

Webs are fundamental to the ecology of Nephila clavipes, the golden orb-weaver spider, because they serve as sites for prey capture, reproduction, competition, predation, and parasitism.

Web site selection and length of web tenure is a behavioral decision vital to the spider’s fitness and the ecology of her species.

Abstract:

Circadian rhythm is a type of endogenous clock that controls daily behavioral patterns in most organisms. Spiders have been shown to exhibit both circadian and non-circadian rhythms in their behaviors. This rhythmicity may allow spiders to cope with diel changes in environmental conditions. Both diurnal and nocturnal behavior have different sets of costs and benefits to a species’ survival. Achaearanea tepidariorum is one species in which potential circadian rhythmicity has never been studied. Due to its foraging behavior, it was predicted that its daily activity would be arrhythmic.

Spider silk is known for its extraordinary material properties, being both very strong and extensible. Even though the fibers outperform many synthetic and natural materials, it is impractical to collect industrial amounts of silk from spiders due to their cannibalistic and venomous nature; they cannot be farmed like the commercial silk worm Bombyx mori. Thus, scientists have turned to molecular and engineering techniques to replicate the spider's silk and spinning apparatus. In the current literature there is no detailed protocol on the production of consistent synthetic fibers. To accomplish
