Abstract
Paukovi (Araneae) su globalno rasprostranjeni red beskralježnjaka, uspijevajući naseliti sve
kontinente osim Antarktike, i zauzimajući gotovo sve ekološke niše. Ne nastanjuju jedino
vodu i zrak, iako se u dijelovima svog života itekako mogu njima okoristiti. Izrazito su
varijabilnih prilagodbi, morfologije i strategija udvaranja.
Ovaj rad pruža uvid u raznolikost snubljenja po značajnijim i najviše istraženim porodicama.
Općenito, dalekovidni lovci koristit će osjetila vida i vizualne signale, kratkovidni lovci osjet
dodira, a paukovi koji pletu mreže vibracije koje se prenose mrežom.Spiders (Araneae) are globally distributed order of invertebrates that managed to take over
every continent except for Antarctica, and taking almost every ecological niche. They don't
habituate only air and water, although in some parts of their lives, they can certainly use them
to their benefit. They're very variable in adaptations, morphology and courtship strategies.
This study offers insight in the diversity of courtship by more relevant and best-studied
families. Generally, long-sighted hunters will use the sense of sight and visual displays, shortsighted hunters by touch, and orb-weavers vibrations transmitted through the web
