Description

Behavioral measurements of an invasive spider across its United States invasive range. Sheet 1 (Mating): Columns includes range (core or leading edge), population (baltimore, college park, new brunswick, south dakota, nebraska, or kansas), subpopulation (where in each population a spider was encountered), female id, female mass (mg), female size (mm), male id, male mass (mg), male size (mm), mate (whether mating occurred: 1 - yes, 0 -no) , whether a male was used twice in mating trials, female mating status, female body condition, male body condition. Sheet 2 (Puff): Columns include range (core or leading edge), population (baltimore, college park, new brunswick, south dakota, nebraska, or kansas), subpopulation (where in each population a spider was encountered), sex (female or male), distance (cm). Sheet 3 (Prod): Columns include range (core or leading edge), population (baltimore, college park, new brunswick, south dakota, nebraska, or kansas), subpopulation (where in each population a spider was encountered), sex (female or male), distance (cm). Sheet 4 (Exploration): Columns includes range (core or leading edge), population (baltimore, college park, new brunswick, south dakota, nebraska, or kansas), subpopulation (where in each population a spider was encountered), id number, mass (mg), size (mm), times in seconds initially exploring, times in seconds spent stationary after initial exploration, times in seconds moving over a 10 minute period following the stationary period, body condition, range as a binomial (1- leading edge, 0 - core), sex binomial (1 - female, 0 - male).
