Trap-Door Spiders

By Jake Miller

Book Overview

The architects of the arachnid world, these spiders dig a hole using special rake-like combs on their front legs. Then they construct a trap door with silk, often covering it with twigs, dirt, and leaves. Imagine the surprise of passing insects that make the mistake of passing too close to this spider's lair! Spectacular photography and in-depth text bring the world of trap-door spiders to life.
