We love Dolomedes 🕷! So much so that a bunch of us wrote a review article about their biology, covering ecology, conservation, evolution & behaviour. Check out all things fishing spiders & see why we think they are so special

Systematics and evolutionary history of raft and nursery‐web spiders (Araneae: Dolomedidae and Pisauridae)
Pisauridae are a global and heterogeneous assemblage of spider genera with diverse morphologies and lifestyles. So far, the monophyly of Pisauridae and the inclusion of fishing spiders (Dolomedes) in...

Mating behaviour influences the direction and geographic extent of introgression in New Zealand fishing spiders (Dolomedes)
Abstract. Introgression is a highly influential process in evolution, where genes flow between species that are not fully reproductively isolated. Studies
