A spider web or cobweb (from the archaic word coppe, meaning "spider") is a structure created by a spider out of its silk which is extruded from its spinnerets (on the rump of the spider). Webs is created to catch prey.
Spiders and their webs have existed for at least 100 million years (as witnessed in a rare find of Early Cretaceous amber from Sussex in southern England). Many spiders build their webs specifically to trap and catch insects to eat, however, not all spiders catch their prey in webs, and some do not build webs at all.
The term "spider web" is typically used to refer to a web that is apparently still in use, whereas "cobweb" refers to a seemingly abandoned. Not all cobwebs are abandoned, spiders in the Theridiidae family actually have a huge range of web architectures. The cellar spider (aka “Daddy Longlegs”) is found in cobweb structures.
In popular culture, webs play a crucial role in films, illustration, and other visual arts, to portray a "spooky" atmosphere, or imply neglect or the passage of time. Artificial "spider webs" are a common element of Halloween decorations.
The Nature’s Wonders Spider Webs set comes with 5 different styled webs for a variety of spiders, as well as egg sacks and a variety of prey items. This set comes with both Poser and DAZ Studio native versions and will support Firefly, 3Delight, Superfly and Iray render engines.
