Hyptiotes

Hyptiotes is a genus of spiders in the family Uloboridae.

==Life style== Hyptiotes spiders produce a rudimentary orb-web consisting only of four radii connected to a single thread which the spider uses to manipulate the web. This triangular web is made between leaves on plants. The spider sits at a vertex until it detects vibrations that signify the collision of its prey. At this moment the spider releases a coil of silk which it has held taut in such a manner that the tension of the web causes it to entangle the prey. The spider then wraps its prey in special wrapping silk.
