Cyclosa make a complete vertical, closely woven orb web in vegetation, about one metre above the ground. The distinguishing character of the web is the stabilimentum in line with the hub. The spider strings together dead bodies of prey and other debris on this stabilimentum. The spider hides in the debris as a defense against predators.
