I've never seen predation of the males with this species. Even when there are several in the web, they have always seemed to have amicable relationships. The male poses neihter threat, competition, nor interesting as a meal to the female and feeding wise, the males need all the help they can get. Their webs suck and when they move into the female's web the sticky threads aren't readily available to him.
