| Spider (2391 words) |
| Spiders reproduce by eggs laid in silk bundles called egg sacs, and the male (usually significantly smaller than the female) is likely to be killed by the female after the coupling, or sometimes before intercourse has occurred. |
| When sexually mature, a male spider will spin a web pad onto which the contents of the abdominal reproductive organs are discharged and then the seminal fluid is transferred into the cavities of the palpi; when an individual secures a mate he thrusts the palpi one at a time into her abdominal genital openings. |
| The widow spiders, brown recluse spiders, hobo spiders, and yellow sac spiders are the dangerous ones among U.S. spiders. |
