About the book

"In the crab spider, Misumena vatia, Douglass H. Morse and his colleagues found an ideal species on which to test basic questions associated with lifetime fitness. Morse found that Misumena is particularly well suited to both field study and laboratory experiments. Over the last 25 years, his experiments have contributed to our understanding of lifetime fitness and helped to develop study techniques that can be applied to animals with other, more complex, life histories. Predator upon a Flower recounts these influential discoveries in a narrative that moves ever outward from individuals to communities to ecosystems, and concludes by suggesting directions for future research in spider biology."--Jacket.
