This picture was taken on a roadside in Manjung District, Perak, in July 2001 at the same time as the two previous pictures were taken. Lawn Wolf Spiders weave sheet-webs to trap insects that fly close to the ground, such as grasshoppers. When disturbed they retreat into a silk funnel under the sheet-web.
