Miagrammopes Explained
Miagrammopes is a genus of cribellate orb weavers first described by Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1870.[1] These spiders have a unique shape and only four of their original eight eyes. They spin a single line of web, actively watching and jerking the line to catch their prey.[2]
