Caught in the web: Spider web architecture affects prey specialization and spider–prey stoichiometric relationships

Quantitative approaches to predator–prey interactions are central to understanding the structure of food webs and their dynamics. Different predatory strategies may influence the occurrence and strength of trophic interactions likely affecting the rates and magnitudes of energy and nutrient transfer...
