What is the evolutionary benefit of looking like a cracker?

Hegar@fedia.io · 82 pts · 24d (2 replies)

In the US it would have 6.3 times more wealth.

Neat little things, I used to find them in the citrus trees my family had in the backyard as a kid.

That's the one! Used to catch them as a kid briefly and put them back in their web. I always made sure spiders didn't get harmed. Cool little guys.

chiliedogg@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 23d

Good news: It's not the size of a pop-tart.

Bad News: Cherry cobbler.

Female adult Isoxya Tabulata

That is the female spider just from underneath. This is what I found when looking for what male vs female look like. OP’s picture is also a female and I still love her 💚

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isoxya_tabulata

The female spiders, especially orbweavers, always look way cooler than the males. I had a argiope argentata in my yard last year that looked like she had a skull for an abdomen, she was massive and the male was so tiny that it was hard to get a clear picture of him!

Female:

I know most people would shudder at me saying this, but…

They’re so adorable!

dkppunk@piefed.social · 2 pts · 23d

I don’t shudder at all, I’m a total spider and insect fan. They are absolutely adorable! ☺️

dkppunk@piefed.social · 1 pts · 23d

Actually, I just remembered I found a different male near the front door and grabbed a better picture with the macro lens for my phone. He was really small!

Wow, look like the cracker and the beehive are going together
