Abstract

About the book: Spider diversity in India is unique, fascinating, but understudied. This handbook on common spiders of India provides a fresh perspective on life history, behaviour, natural history, and conservation through first-hand (unpublished) scientific field notes collected over the last 15 years. The book also simplifies the identification through illustrations and numerous images of spiders from different angles. The individual spider description uses terms that can be easily understood by an amateur yet does not make it redundant for an expert. This book would act as a field guide and be helpful in the laboratory for the students. Ultimately, this volume aims to kindle curiosity in all the readers, enabling them to observe spiders more intently.
