Spiderweb

Over 100 million years ago in what later became Spain, a spider’s four victims together with the spider’s web were captured in amber. The victims were a wasp, a bee, a fly and a mite – all but the mite from the three orders of flying insects with today’s highest diversity.

Spiders are not insects but through predation they significantly affected their evolution, although the most ancient spiders did not use webs at all.
