Robb Bennett – “Spiders”
by Sherri Wretham, 28 January 2010

Robb Bennett is an entomologist who has studied the natural history of spiders for many years.   His interest has taken him around the world, and his collected specimens reside in many museums.  Robb formerly worked as a researcher with the BC Ministry of Forests, and was the editor of the Canadian Entomologist (2007-2011).

Now semi-retired, Robb welcomed us into the strange predatory world of spiders, where females rule and males must tread carefully!
