Heart rate in spiders: influence of body size and foraging energetics.

J E Carrel, R D Heathcote.   

Abstract

Resting heart rates in 18 species of spiders as determined by a cool laser transillumination technique range from 9 to 125 beats per minute. Cardiac frequencies obtained in this fashion may readily serve as a measure of standard rates of metabolism. A spider's resting heart rate is a function of body size and of foraging energetics.
