During a forensic entomological study conducted in a palm oil plantation in Tg.Sepat, Selangor in September 2007, a spider (Arachnida), Oxyopes sp. (Oxyopidae) was found to predate on a calliphorid fly (Chrysomya rufifacies). The female spider laid a silk thread, or "drag line", behind it as it moved. This spider bites its prey by using a pairs of chelicerae, and injecting venom into the fly. The fly was moving its wing trying to escape, however, it succumbed to the deadly bite.
2007年9月，在雪兰莪州Tg.Sepat的一个棕榈油种植园进行法医昆虫学研究期间，发现一只蜘蛛（蛛形纲），即食虫蛛属（Oxyopidae）的某种食虫蛛捕食一只丽蝇（红头丽蝇）。这只雌蛛移动时会在身后留下丝线，即“拖丝”。这只蜘蛛用一对螯肢叮咬猎物，并向苍蝇注射毒液。苍蝇扇动翅膀试图逃脱，但最终死于致命一咬。
