Reproduction in two species of arctic arachnids, Pardosa glacialis and Alopecosa hirtipes

I investigated the relationship between clutch size, female size and mass, and clutch mass in two species of arctic spiders, Alopecosa hirtipes and Pardosa glacialis (Araneae: Lycosidae). Female mass and number of young were significantly correlated with female size in both years of the study. Cocoo...
