araneophagy; behaviour; Plexippinae
Abstract
Observations on Thyene imperialis (Rossi, 1846) in Israel, Negev desert, invading a web of Cyclosa deserticola Levy, 1998 are reported. The female leapt into the orb-web to catch Cyclosa spiders. Photographs are provided, and a link to additional film material is given.
