Factors affecting the proportion of three-dimensional spider webs along a precipitation gradient
Our study considers how predation by ants and intense rainfall affect the proportion of three-dimensional (3D) versus two-dimensional (2D) spider webs along a precipitation gradient. We predicted that if predator protection benefits of 3D webs outweighed the costs of rain damage, the proportion of 3...
