Unlike orb-weaver spiders that spin spirals of web, funnel-weaver spiders spin sheets of web. This specimen was collected from the Lewis & Clark campus for observation when it suddenly began webbing up the inside of its container. This was a great opportunity to see how it moved its abdomen and spinnerets. Afterwards, it groomed its legs.
