"Different Spiders mate in different positions, but in all cases the aim is to transfer sperm from the male to the female. The male does this by inserting the mating organ at the end of its pedipalp (a spine-like structure on tip) carrying the sperm, into the female's reproductive (epigynal) opening on the underside of her body. In some species the tip of the pedipalp will break off during mating or a hardened secretion will block the females openings, preventing other males from mating with that female. The sperm is stored in sacs inside the female's abdomen until she is ready to lay her eggs."
