Spider are apparently absent. In some species, the exocuticle of the legs and prosoma is modified by a tanning process, resulting in brown coloration. Bilins are found, for example, in "Micrommata virescens", resulting in its green color. Guanine is responsible for the white markings of the European garden spider "Araneus diadematus". It is in many species accumulated in specialized cells called guanocytes. In genera such as "Tetragnatha", "Leucauge", "Argyrodes" or "Theridiosoma", guanine creates their silvery appearance. While guanine is originally an end-product of protein metabolism, its excretion can be blocked in spiders, leading to an increase in its storage. Structural colors
Winter garden Winter garden A winter garden is a kind of garden maintained in wintertime. The origin of the winter garden dates back to the 17th to 19th centuries where European nobility would construct large conservatories that would house tropical and subtropical plants and would act as an extension of their living space. Many of these would be attached to their main palaces. Earlier versions would be constructed of masonry with large windows and a glass roof, usually in the Classical or Gothic styles. While in the 19th century many of these conservatories were made out of iron and curvilinear glass. Winter
