The Bowl and Doily spiders are small (about 4 mm. or 2/10 inch) creatures that weave a fairly complex sheet web system consisting of an inverted dome shaped web ("bowl") suspended above a horizontal sheet web ("doily"). They are members of the Lynphiinae, and their formal name is Frontinella pyramitela.

I've copied the above text here from Bowl and doily spider, since I don't know enough about this to encorporate it (does it apply to all, or only some spiders?). I have added the photos. Mark Richards 20:37, 4 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Better not. Especially if you don't know enough. Mikkalai 20:44, 4 Mar 2004 (UTC)

For the future, please keep in mind that there is no such thing as "Bowl and doily and dwarf spider", but there are "Bowl and doily and dwarf spiders", jusr as there is no noun "scissor" (there is a "to scissor" verb). This is a common mistake of dictionary compilers to back-derive a singular from a plural. Mikkalai 21:20, 4 Mar 2004 (UTC)

This case was an especially tricky one: bowl-and-doily...and dwarf.Mikkalai 22:05, 4 Mar 2004 (UTC)
