Some Darwin wasps in Polysphintecta The genus Group (Ichneumonidae, Pimplinae) ectoparasitoids that evoke changes in behavior in their hosts spiders, structures known as “Cocoon Webs”. A relevant aspect of understanding the mechanism of Wasps involves comparing the structures of the web at the time of maneuvering other times in spiders. In this study, we presented a novel chance to change the behavior of Cryptachaea Jequirituba (Araneae: Thridiidae) parasitized to Zatypota Alborhombarta And check if Cocoon Webs are related to webs built on throwing, growing, and mother-care. We noticed that cocoon webs built by spiders parasitized in last-stage larvae showed a reduction in vertical and gumfoot lines. Further, there is an increase in the limited ends of the lines and the presence of silk threads around the web counter. These web qualities are likely to contribute to the development of web resistance and strength. Besides, we find that cocoon webs are similar to the web built spiders and showing the resemblance to the mothers’ caring. These consequences suggest that the mechanisms of manipulating the Wasps in this Cobweb Spider can be based on the activation of Innate Processes.
