Four Seasons and Spiders 2. Summer

Buchar J., Havel L.

In the summer, only few short-lived spider males occur in nature in the Czech Repub-lic. Exceptionally, some species of the invertebrates can mate. In the late summer, females in some spider species produce the second cocoons. By numbers, young from the first spring cocoons predominate. They use ascendant warm air currents for aeronautic migration.
