AUSTRALASIAN CAMOUFLAGE (Special cases)                   This is where the art of camouflage is taken to extremes in a number of complex ways; whole pieces of bird dung, or even employing silk to ‘paint-on’ the splatter of uric acid (the white part of bird dung); a stem with a piece of unripe fruit at the end; and using your silk as a background on which to camouflage, are just some of the incredible adaptations used by small animals to avoid, and sometimes assist in, predation. 15 more species available   0194: Birdpoo Spider Neoarchemorus? sp.
