MYSTERIOUS WEB
This delicate structure is, in
fact, a web – the outer “fence” is
thought to protect the central silk
cone. A student first saw this web
in Ecuador in 2013 and watched
small, orange spiderlings (below)
hatch from a cone. Scientists are
working to identify the spiders that
spin these unusual webs.
