A daytime/nighttime cycle, to be precice. Which bugs me because you can't tell day from night on the moon (never mind that you can see Norrath by looking up, and should be able to tell the time, depending on what time zone you're looking at, etc 
). Only problem is, shak dratha are MUCH more likely to drop shade silk (tailoring trivial 81) than they are to drop shadeling silk.
The heaviest concentration of xakra silkworms spawn in the area right by the book, but they are on a cycle with the bugs and little rockhoppers. This can be handy, especially as more seem to spawn if they are being actively hunted, because the hoppers will occasionally drop hides, silkworms will drop silk, and the bugs will (rarely) drop bloodling carapaces that you need for the shadowscream quest.
And of course, there is skeleton hill (very close to the entrance to the caves) where lesser shades live... unlive... something. Skeletal hunters and nusiances spawn there, so be sure to wipe them out, especially since nusiances will pick fights with shades. Lots of shadeling silk, some swirling shadows. It's a good place to play during the 'day' if you're farming substances.
You can't tell I spent much of my newbie-hood in shadeweavers, can you?
