| has gloss | eng: The cribellum is a silk spinning organ found in certain spiders. Unlike normal spinnerets, the cribellum consists of one or more plates covered in thousands of tiny spigots. These spigots produce extremely fine fibers which are combed out by the spider's calamistrum, producing silk with a wooly texture. The fibers are so small in diameter that prey insects easily become entangled in them, without any glue needed. The spiders then bite them before they can get away. |

| has gloss | deu: Cribellate Spinnen (Cribellatae) sind Echte Webspinnen, die dank besonderer Organe in der Lage sind, Fangwolle ohne Leimtröpfchen für ihre Spinnennetze herzustellen. Sie unterscheiden sich grundlegend von den ecribellaten Spinnen, die Leimfäden produzieren. Cribellatae und Ecribellatae wurden früher auf Grund ihrer erstaunlichen Unterschiede in der Produktion ihrer Spinnseide als Infraordnungen angesehen. Heute stattdessen folgt man der Einteilung in Haplogynae und Entelegynae, die beide sowohl cribellate wie ecribellate Spinnen umfassen. |
