Cellar spiders of the genus Pholcus are remarkable for their net structure and prey-capturing techniques, e.g. by wrapping an insect in a large quantity of spider silk: the spider quickly envelops its prey with silk. Bionomic details are described by the example of the synan¬thropic Daddy Long-legs Spider (Pholcus phalangioides).
