Abstract
Linda Duran used a multidisciplinary approach to analyse changes and interactions in behaviours, venom profiles and morphophysiological variables in four species of Australian funnel-web spiders, to understand the ecological role, evolution and diversification of venom in funnel-web spiders. These results and methods are applicable to the study of other venomous animals.
