ISBN 978-5-328-00403-9 До настоящего времени сведения по экологии пауков на территории Камчатского края крайне ограничены и фрагментарны, поскольку специальные арахнологические исследо- вания фаунистического характера на полуострове проводили более 80 лет назад. Моно- графия представляет собой первое эколого-фаунистическое исследование фауны пауков (Arachnida: Aranei) на территориях природных парков Камчатки. В ней рассмотрены во- просы ареалогии, зоогеографии и экологии 167 видов из 17 семейств пауков. Впервые для полуострова показаны биотопическое и высотно-поясное распределение видов (в том чис- ле в горно-вулканических и термальных экосистемах), а также отдельные стадии жизнен- ных циклов и сезонная динамика численности доминирующих семейств пауков, встре- чающихся на территориях природных парков Камчатки. Работа снабжена приложениями, содержащими систематический список пауков, населяющих обследованные ООПТ, и от- ражающими их биотопическое распределение на указанных территориях. Книга представляет интерес для энтомологов, специалистов-экологов, работников при- родоохранных структур, преподавателей и студентов. На обложке и в монографии использованы фотографии автора, кроме специально ого- воренных случаев. УДК 595.44(571.66) ББК 28.691 ISBN 978-5-328-00403-9 © КамчатГТУ, 2020 © Е. М.

Tokranov, Doctor of Biological Sciences, Director of Kamchatka Branch of Pacific Geographical Institute FEB RAS Nenasheva, Elena Mikhailovna Spiders (Arachnida: Aranei) of Kamchatka's Natural Parks: Fauna, Ecology, Zoogeog- raphy : monograph / E. M. Nenasheva. – Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskу : KamchatSTU, 2020. – 139 p. ISBN 978-5-328-00403-9 To date, information on the ecology of spiders from Kamchatka is extremely limited and fragmented, since special arachnological faunistic studies were carried out more than 80 years ago. This monograph is the first ecological and faunistic study of the spider fauna (Arachnida, Aranei) from the territories of Kamchatka's Natural Parks. The author discusses issues of arealogy, zoogeography and ecology of 167 species of spiders from 17 families. The biotopic and altitudinal-zonal distribution of the spider species is shown for the first time for Kamchatka peninsula, including mountain-volcanic and thermal ecosystems, as well as the individual stages of life cycles and seasonal dynamics of the number of dominant spider families found from Kam- chatka's Natural Parks. The monograph includes supplementary systematic list of spiders inhabit- ing these specially protected natural territories, reflecting their biotopic distribution. To be recommended to entomologists, environmental specialists, employers from the nature- protecting affiliations, teachers and students. Author’s photographs were used on the cover and in the monograph, except for cases specially indicated in the Acknowledgements. ISBN 978-5-328-00403-9 © KamchatSTU, 2020 © E. M.

  • Spiders (Araneae) of Stony Debris in North Bohemia
    Arachnol. Mitt. 12:46-56 Basel, Dezember 1996 Spiders (Araneae) of stony debris in North Bohemia o v v Vlastimil RUZICKA & Jaromfr HAJER Abstract: The arachnofauna was studied at five stony debris sites in northern Bohemia. In Central Europe, the northern and montane species inhabiting cold places live not only on mountain tops and peat bogs but also on the lower edges of boulder debris, where air streaming through the system of inner compartments gives rise to an exceedingly cold microclimate. At such cold sites, spiders can live either on bare stones (Bathyphantes simillimus, Wubanoides ura/ensis), or in the rich layers of moss and lichen (Dip/oeentria bidentata). Kratoehviliella bieapitata exhibits a diplostenoecious occurrence in stony debris and on tree bark. Latithorax faustus and Theonoe minutissima display diplostenoecious occurrence in stony debris and on peat bogs. The occurrence of the species Seotina eelans in the Czech Republic was documented for the first time. Key words: Spiders, stony debris, microclimate, geographic distribution. INTRODUCTION Stony debris constitute, in Central Europe, island ecosystems which have remained virtually intact over the entire Holocene. Due to the unfeasibility of utilization, stony debris areas are among the few ecosystems that have only minimally been affected by man. In bulky accumulations, air can flow through the system of internal spaces. In this way, cold air can accumulate in the lower part of the tal us, so that ice can form and persist there until late spring. This phenomenon, well known from the Alp region (FURRER 1966), occurs widely in North Bohemia (KUBAT 1971). Owing to the specific substrate and microclimate, stony debris areas are inhabited by specific plant (SADLO & KOLBEK 1994) and animal communities, contributing thus o v v significantly to the biodiversity of the landscape (RUZICKA 1993a).

In total, the character matrix includes 47 taxa: 35 linyphiids representing the currently used subfamilies of Linyphiidae (Stemonyphantinae, Mynogleninae, Erigoninae, and Linyphiinae (Micronetini plus Linyphiini)) and 12 outgroup species representing nine araneoid families (Pimoidae, Theridiidae, Nesticidae, Synotaxidae, Cyatholipidae, Mysmenidae, Theridiosomatidae, Tetragnathidae, and Araneidae). The morphological characters include those used in recent studies of linyphiid phylogenetics, covering both genitalic and somatic morphology. Different sequence alignments and analytical methods produce different cladistic hypotheses. Lack of congruence among different analyses is, in part, due to the shifting placement of Labulla, Pityohyphantes,

  • Spiders (Araneae) of Churchill, Manitoba: DNA Barcodes And
    Blagoev et al. BMC Ecology 2013, 13:44 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1472-6785/13/44 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Spiders (Araneae) of Churchill, Manitoba: DNA barcodes and morphology reveal high species diversity and new Canadian records Gergin A Blagoev1*, Nadya I Nikolova1, Crystal N Sobel1, Paul DN Hebert1,2 and Sarah J Adamowicz1,2 Abstract Background: Arctic ecosystems, especially those near transition zones, are expected to be strongly impacted by climate change. Because it is positioned on the ecotone between tundra and boreal forest, the Churchill area is a strategic locality for the analysis of shifts in faunal composition. This fact has motivated the effort to develop a comprehensive biodiversity inventory for the Churchill region by coupling DNA barcoding with morphological studies. The present study represents one element of this effort; it focuses on analysis of the spider fauna at Churchill. Results: 198 species were detected among 2704 spiders analyzed, tripling the count for the Churchill region. Estimates of overall diversity suggest that another 10–20 species await detection. Most species displayed little intraspecific sequence variation (maximum <1%) in the barcode region of the cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene, but four species showed considerably higher values (maximum = 4.1-6.2%), suggesting cryptic species. All recognized species possessed a distinct haplotype array at COI with nearest-neighbour interspecific distances averaging 8.57%. Three species new to Canada were detected: Robertus lyrifer (Theridiidae), Baryphyma trifrons (Linyphiidae), and Satilatlas monticola (Linyphiidae). The first two species may represent human-mediated introductions linked to the port in Churchill, but the other species represents a range extension from the USA.

  • “There Would Doubtless Be a Just Feeling of Pride
    “There would doubtless be a just feeling of pride and satisfaction in the heart of a naturalist who could say that he had made himself thoroughly acquainted with all the species of a particular group of animals, had learned their most secret habits, and mastered their several relations to the objects, animate and inanimate, which surrounded them. But perhaps a still keener pleasure is enjoyed by one who carries about with him some problem of the kind but partially solved, and who, holding in his hand the clue which shall guide him onwards, sees in each new place that he visits fresh opportunities of discovery.” J.

Bien qu’efficace en ce sens, l’approche ne restaure pas l’hétérogénéité des habitats qui supportent la grande biodiversité des tourbières naturelles. Les mares de tourbière sont des habitats auxquels une faune et une flore caractéristiques sont associées et qui contribuent significativement à la biodiversité des tourbières. La création de mares dans les tourbières restaurées devrait y augmenter l’hétérogénéité des habitats et, ainsi, la biodiversité. Dans virtuellement tous les écosystèmes, les arthropodes sont diversifiés et abondants, et ils sont sensibles aux variations environnementales à une échelle fine, ce qui fait d’eux des indicateurs écologiques intéressants. Pour ce projet, 21 mares réparties dans deux classes de profondeur (profondes et peu profondes) et trois classes de végétation (mousses, arbustes et plantes graminoïdes) ont été aménagées lors de la restauration d’une tourbière minérotrophe dans la région du Bas-Saint-Laurent. Les mares de quatre tourbières des environs ont été inventoriées en tant qu’écosystème de référence.

  • A Complete List of the Spiders of British Columbia (2006)
    A Complete list of the spiders of British Columbia (2006) The list of spiders of British Columbia was completed by Robb Bennett, David Blades, Don Buckle, Charles Dondale, and Rick C. West in 2006. It is based upon a spider database initially developed by Blades for use within the Royal British Columbia Museum and revised and updated by Bennett. Locality data were recorded primarily from specimens in the RBCM and the Canadian National Collection (Agriculture & Agri- Food Canada, Ottawa). This list builds upon earlier lists of BC spiders prepared by Erik Thorn (1967) and West, Dondale, and Richard Ring (1984 & 1988) and referenced in "Spiders (Araneae) and Araneology in British Columbia (Bennett. 2001. Journal of the Entomological Society of British Columbia, 98:83-90 LINK). Nomenclature follows the authoritative spider taxonomy and bibliography website, Norman Platnick's "The World Spider Catalog" (http://research.amnh.org/entomology/spiders/catalog/index.html). In a few instances, linyphiid species nomenclature follows Buckle, D.J., Carroll, D., Crawford, D.L., and Roth, V.D. 2001.

  • Arachnida: Araneae) of the Canadian Prairies
    75 Chapter 4 Spiders (Arachnida: Araneae) of the Canadian Prairies Héctor Cárcamo Lethbridge Research Centre, Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada, Lethbridge, AB Jaime Pinzón Department of Renewable Resources, Faculty of Agricultural, Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton Robin Leech 10534, 139 St NW, Edmonton AB John Spence Department of Renewable Resources, Faculty of Agricultural, Life and Environmental Sciences, University of Alberta, Edmonton Abstract. Spiders are the seventh most diverse order of arthropods globally and are prominent predators in all prairie habitats. In this chapter, a checklist for the spiders of the Prairie Provinces (767 recorded species and 44 possible species) is presented along with an overview of all 26 families that occur in the region. Eighteen of the species from the region are adventive. Linyphiidae is by far the dominant family, representing 39% of all species in the three provinces. Gnaphosidae and Lycosidae each represent 8% and three other families (Salticidae, Dictynidae, and Theridiidae) each account for 7%. A summary of biodiversity studies conducted in the Prairies Ecozone and from transition ecoregions is also provided. The Mixed Grassland Ecoregion has the most distinctive assemblage; Schizocosa mccooki and Zelotes lasalanus are common only in this ecoregion. Other ecoregions appear to harbour less distinctive assemblages, but most have been poorly studied. Lack of professional opportunities for spider systematists in Canada remains a major barrier to the advancement of the taxonomy and ecology of spiders. Résumé. Les aranéides forment le septième ordre le plus diversifi é d’arthropodes dans le monde; ce sont des prédateurs très présents dans tous les habitats des Prairies.
