Abstract
Sexual size dimorphism in orb-weaving spiders is a relatively well-studied phenomenon, and numerous works have documented evolutionary variation in interspecific size and degree of dimorphism. To date, these studies have been largely limited to assessing the evolution of a single or few linear measurements correlated with body size. While the descriptive and comparative literature is rich with qualitative and linear comparisons that distinguish...
