[2] They tend to either form aggregations with spiders of the same species or are found as solitary individuals, and their states heavily impact their web decorating abilities.

In addition to chromatic colours, the UV reflecting properties on the abdomen also serve as a way to attract prey.

There is no significant difference in the number of prey that can be caught by either solitary or aggregating spiders over a 10-day period.

[5] Like other orb-web spiders, A. radon, create spiral, circular webs in addition to silk decorations.

[5] The web’s architecture plays a significant role in its functions, especially when the force inputted by the prey is high.

The webs’ ability to stop an intense amount of force for an organism is not impaired by temperature, but can be affected by extreme cases of humidity.

Having a too low or too high of a temperature can potentially counter the effects of the webs in capturing prey.

These specific spiders are similar to other Argiope species in that they build silk decorations that are diagonal, starting from the top left of the web to going to the bottom right side.

In addition, satiation levels influence the length of web decorations and tendency to form aggregations.

Due to the tensile properties of these nonlinear patterned webs, the orb-webs are highly functional, even after being damaged.

[8] Resting metabolic rate (RMR) of a female’s parents does not change how long it takes her to lay an egg sac after mating.

Usually, total available resources decreases with increased maternal age, which leads to lower egg sac mass and later emerging time for young.

This risk leads to a strong level of selection for high repeatability in male courtship signals.

These signals of high repeatability help to relay an increased amount of information to females about the male’s identity and intent.

Because females have poor vision, these repeatable vibratory signals are key to reducing the risk of male injury.

[5] Lowered resting metabolic rates (RMR) are favored when spiders are completing activities that require a large amount of energy.
