  • To protect herself and her eggs, female webspinners shoot super-fine silk from their front feet. They weave the strands to build a shelter that serves as a tent, umbrella and invisibility cloak. But shooting silk from her feet requires her to moonwalk to get around.

    ---
    With the holidays just around the corner, it’s that time of year when you’re ready to burn off Thanksgiving turkey and Christmas cookie calories by heading outdoors for a hike. Maybe you’ve noticed what looks like spider webs woven in between weeds alongside the trail, or poking out from under rocks or draped across logs.
    But take a closer look - those webs might actually not be spider webs. A lot of them are silken habitats, known as 'galleries,' created by insects called webspinners.
    ---+ Read the entire article on KQED Science:
    www.kqed.org/science/1949380/
    --- Where do webspinners live?
    You find them living in a variety of habitats all over the world, from humid tropical rain forests to dry, hotter areas.
    --- Do only adults spin silk?
    Actually, everybody spins silk, the males, females and the nymphs. It’s completely unique for insects to have that ability.
    --- Who is briefly featured in the episode turning over the log?
    While only her hands make a short cameo in the video, Janice Edgerly-Rooks, is a professor of biology at Santa Clara University. She’s been studying these insects for most of her career and was invaluable to us in the production of our episode.

    🏆Congratulations 🏆to the following fans on our RUclips community tab for correctly identifying the insects besides webspinners that produce silk with their front feet: the balloon flies of the Empididae family, such as Hilara maura.
