Brown recluses are small spiders known for venom that can cause swelling, blistering and a fever in humans. If you’re unsure ...

Spiders, known for their varying morphology and behaviour, predominantly have eight eyes. This eye arrangement enhances their field of vision, aiding detection of predators and prey. Some spiders ...

Many creatures defy the two-eye norm, developing multiple eyes for survival. Spiders use their eight eyes for hunting or ...

While spiders don't sleep in the same way humans do, they do enter periods of rest or inactivity. And some research suggests that regular bouts of eye movement coupled with limb twitching indicate ...

They accomplished two important goals: changing how spider eyes form and adding new traits to the silk that spiders spin. Their findings appear in the peer-reviewed journal, Angewandte Chemie ...
