Abstract
⺠Agonistic behaviour of the females varies depending on their nutritional state. ⺠Three behaviours are observed: no-contact, contact-avoidance, and contact-aggression. ⺠The most aggressive females have the highest levels of lipids. ⺠Female spiders start looking for food when their lipid reserves start to decrease.
