“…S3) that birds will at least sometimes consume spiders and lepidopteran parasitoids, spiders will eat other spider species, and both birds and spiders will feed on other predatory taxa (see the complete matrix of trophic interactions detailed in Table S1). Intraspecific predation is common in spiders and has often been observed within the species studied here (Visakorpi et al, 2015; Appendix S1, Fig. S3).…”

“…Adding to dietary plasticity within the arctic community is the scope for cannibalism among the spiders as a key predator guild. While our current methods fall short of accurately resolving either inter-or intraguild predation among predators (Appendix S1), we know from both field observations (Visakorpi et al, 2015) and stray records obtained in the current study (Appendix S1, Fig. S3) that birds will at least sometimes consume spiders and lepidopteran parasitoids, spiders will eat other spider species, and both birds and spiders will feed on other predatory taxa (see the complete matrix of trophic interactions detailed in Table S1).…”

“…2) may however also cause resilience/resistance (as impacts onto the interaction web are diluted through its many channels) (Strong 1992; Bartomeus et al 2013). An illustration of this was provided by the experimental study by Visakorpi et al (2015). While predicting pronounced trophic cascades in the presumptively simple food webs of the Arctic, they expected that the removal of predators would enhance herbivory by increasing the number of herbivores, and that an increase in predator species would come with the opposite effect.…”

“…While it is clear that in the tundra biome, birds depend on the arthropods, the impact of bird predation on the arctic arthropod community has not yet been thoroughly evaluated (e.g. Appendix B in Visakorpi et al 2015). …”
