This paper reviews inter- and intraspecific competition in web-building spiders in the field. Although interspecific competition was thought to be important in spider communities, recent field experiments have revealed that it is infrequent. Intraspecific competition is also not common at the population level. Possible reasons for the absence of competition in spider populations are discussed.
