A Spider’s Web

Abstract

This list of references should help the reader to continue his study within the domain of subjects we have covered. Because our attention has been restricted, many of the familiar topics of arachnology have been slighted, notably systematics, mating behavior and venoms. The wonderful books for children on spiders and web-building have been omitted. Books and papers, including some often quoted in the literature, were left from the list if they could not be found, on the assumption that the reader would experience similar difficulty. We have pruned away short communications if they were discussed in extenso in later papers of the same author, although otherwise we have omitted discussions or accounts which were merely reiterative. Despite these exclusions, there are more papers in the list than are quoted in the text; full titles will assist the judgement of the relevance of a paper to a particular interest.
