Hasarius adansoni from the field are raised first in laboratory codition for acclimation. In order to record the life cycle of Hasarius adansoni and testify temperature effect on the cycle, spiderlings areraised under 20℃, 25℃, 30℃, and room temperature conditions. Predatory, agonistic, and courtship behavior are observed in the observation box. The data show: there are 5-6 stadiums from spiderling to adult, and later statiumsrequire more days for development; under room temperature, egg development andpostembryo development both require 12 days, and the rest statiums require 16-25 days, mortality is 62.3%, sexratio (♂:♀) is 1.1 : 1.5; under 25℃, the rest statiums require 19-36 days, mortality is 77.9%, sex ratio is 1 : 1.3; under 20℃, the rest statiums require 50-65 days, mortality is 100%, and spiderlings can be raised to 4th statium only; under 30℃, the rest statiums require 16-25 days, mortality is 90.3%, sex ratio is 2:1. Eggs from different moths show different development rate and mortality. There are 20 elements of behavior known for Hasarius adansoni, including 4 predatory behavior elements, 3 agonistic behavior elements, 12 courtship behavior elements. The results suggest: in the field, overwintering Hasarius adansoni is the adult; vision plays an important role in courtship behavior while smell is influential only in ahort distance.
