- Annual review of entomology
- 1996
Salticids, the largest family of spiders, have unique eyes, acute vision, and elaborate vision-mediated predatory behavior, which is more pronounced than in any other spider group. Diverse predatory… Expand
Jumping spiders (Araneae: Salticidae) that feed on nectar
