The paper shows that the order of species arrival affects competitive outcomes through spatial niche preemption, enabling coexistence of two spider mite species.

The paper examines how collective foraging aggressiveness in social spider colonies responds to disturbances and whether parent-offspring colonies resemble each other in this behavior.
J. N. Pruitt, D. N. Fisher, R. Costa-Pereira, N. Pinter-Wollman
The paper examines multilevel selection in social spider colonies, finding that within-cluster competition and between-cluster selection depend on the number of rival colonies and colony aggressiveness.
