Sex life of spiders and insects

INSECTS • SPIDERS • REPRODUCTION

Entomologist and Photographer Peter Naskretski released an illustrated book About the Life of Spiders sex. We've learned That in Sexual Relationships, One partner is Usually Larger than the Other, But none of the species is not so Clearly Expressed as in the form of Spiders Nephila maculate. This spider Lives in New Guinea and the neighboring Islands. Their Web of silk is so strong That it even stuck Small Birds, and local fishermen use it to create Light Chains and gear. When A Tiny male of this species is Ready to mate, he Finds A Web of adult Female and waiting for the right moment. He Needs to be very Careful, as His "beloved" Could Simply Eat it. If he WAS Lucky, he weave the Web of the Female body, so as not to fall, and then climb to the bottom of her stomach to pour semen.
