Obtained data also showed that the first spiderling consumed the largest number of prey (larvae and nymphs of Emboasca sp.), whiie from the second to fifth spiderlings; the individuals fed on the larvae of Acheroia grisella F. for both females and males. On the other hand, the spider females only fed on the larvae of Galleria galleria during the sixth spiderling.
