"Cocoons of Theridiosoma gemmosum consist of two main parts, the egg sac case and the stalk. The inner space of the egg sac case is filled with nonsticky flocculent silk. Measuring 600-800 nm in diameter, the flocculent threads are never made up of bundles of longitudinally oriented nanofibrils. The egg case wall consists of a lower layer of highly ordered threads and an upper layer of cover silk. The lower, permanently white layer consists of threads in a mesh-like arrangement, the thicker threads being 4-6 microm and the thinner threads being 2-3 microm in diameter. Each thread is a bundle of parallel nanofibrils, with a diameter between 150 and 300 nm. The silk secretions of these fibers, emitted from spigots, are processed by legs. The upper layer of the egg case is applied to the threads of the lower layer by direct rubbing against its surface, i.e. without the use of legs. In the lower and middle part of the egg case, the accumulated secretion forms a virtually compact encrustation, whereas in th" . "Egg Sac Silk of Theridiosoma gemmosum (Araneae: Theridiosomatidae)" .
