  • The Life Cycle of Heteropoda Venatoria (Linnaeus) (Araneae: Heteropodidae)I, by John Ross 3, David B
    THE LIFE CYCLE OF HETEROPODA VENATORIA (LINNAEUS) (ARANEAE: HETEROPODIDAE)I, BY JOHN ROSS 3, DAVID B. RICHMAN 3, FADEL MANSOUR4, ANNE TRAMBARULO3, AND W. H. WHITCOMB The giant crab spider, Heteropoda venatoria (L.), is known to occur throughout much of the tropics and subtropics of the world where it is valued as a predator of cockroaches (Guthrie and Tindall 1968, Hughes 1977, Edwards 1979). Its feeding habits, like those of most spiders, vary somewhat and it has also been known to eat scorpions and bats (Bhattacharya 1941), although it is questionable as to whether it normally attacks such prey. This spider is often found associated with human habitation, possibly due to the abun- dance of prey (Subrahamanyam 1944, Edwards 1979). Although biological notes on H. venatoria have been published by several workers (Lucas 1871, Minchin 1904, Bristowe 1924, Bonnet 1930, Ori 1974, 1977), the only life history work to date was published by Bonnet (1932) and Sekiguchi (1943, 1944a,b, 1945). Bonnet (1932) based his study on only 12 spiders (of which seven matured) and lacked data on the postembryonic stages. Sekiguchi (1943, 1944a,b, 1945) presented a more nearly complete study, but the papers are difficult to translate and they still lack some data, especially in regard to variation in the number of instars and carapace width. We have raised H. venatoria in the laboratory and present here our data on life cycle of this important beneficial arthropod. MATERIALS AND METHODS Spiders were obtained from avocado groves in south Florida, near Homestead, Dade County. Egg sacs taken from our laboratory This study was partially supported by the United States-lsrael BARD Fund as Research Project No.

Males are characterised by the absence of the conductor and females are unique within the genus in having the lateral lobes of their epigyne fused. The systematic relationship of the new species is discussed referring to its isolated occurrence in the Western Ghats. Keywords Taxonomy, Huntsman Spiders, morphology Introduction Almost all members of the subfamily Heteropodinae as well as almost all species of the genus Pseudopoda exhibit a membranous conductor (Jäger 2001, 2002). Jäger et al. (2015) described the first Pseudopoda species without a conductor. Pseudopoda wu Jäger, Li & Krehenwinkel 2015 shows a small non-sclerotised patch at its tegulum, most likely the rest of an otherwise reduced conductor homologue.

  • Marine Tenure in Indonesia's Makassar Straits the Mandar Raft Fishery
    Marine Tenure in Indonesia's Makassar Straits The Mandar Raft Fishery Charles Zerner 40 Tompkins Place Brooklyn, New York 11231 Consultant, World Resources Institute Program in Biodiversity Washington, D.C. CONFERENCE DRAFT presented at The First Annual Meeting of the International Association for the Study of Common Property, September 27-30, 1990 Duke University, Durham, North Carolina. 2 Marine Tenure in Indonesia's Makassar Straits The Mandar Raft Fishery Abstract Although a diversity of contemporary common property marine resource management systems has been documented in the South Pacific (Johannes 1982, Johannes et al 1984; Ruddle and Johannes 1985; Cordell 1989), the existence and utility of marine cpr practices on the coasts and islands of Indonesia's vast archipelago of more than 13,000 islands have been questioned (Polunin 1984, 1985). This paper reviews developments in one contemporary marine cpr system, the Mandar raft fishery, and briefly relates preliminary findings concerning another, the Balabalangan Islands' fishery. The role of these local resource management practices in regulating access to local environments is reviewed, as are their inadequacies. Both marine tenure systems are alive but under assault: they are being undermined and delegitimized by governmental administrative practices and judicial decisions. Adverse consequences of governmental interventions in these fisheries cprs probably entails diminished welfare of local communities and decreased capacity to limit emerging environmental pressures on local resource

ISSN 0136-006X (Proceedings of the 21st European Colloquium of Arachnology, St.-Petersburg, 49 August 2003) A study of the character palpal claw in the spider subfamily Heteropodinae (Araneae: Sparassidae) Èçó÷åíèå ïðèçíàêà êîãîòü ïàëüïû ó ïàóêîâ ïîäñåìåéñòâà Heteropodinae (Araneae: Sparassidae) P. J ÄGER Forschungsinstitut Senckenberg, Senckenberganlage 25, D60325 Frankfurt am Main, Germany. email: [email protected] ABSTRACT. The palpal claw is evaluated as a taxonomic character for 42 species of the spider family Sparassidae and investigated in 48 other spider families for comparative purposes. A pectinate claw appears to be synapomorphic for all Araneae. Elongated teeth and the egg-sac carrying behaviour of the Heteropodinae seem to represent a synapomorphy for this subfamily, thus results of former systematic analyses are supported. One of the Heteropodinae genera, Sinopoda, displays variable character states. According to ontogenetic patterns, shorter palpal claw teeth and the absence of egg-sac carrying behaviour may be secondarily reduced within this genus. Based on the idea of evolutionary efficiency, a functional correlation between the morphological character (elongated palpal claw teeth) and egg-sac carrying behaviour is hypothesized. The palpal claw with its sub-characters is considered to be of high analytical systematic significance, but may also give important hints for taxonomy and phylogenetics. Results from a zoogeographical approach suggest that the sister-groups of Heteropodinae lineages are to be found in Madagascar and east Africa and that Heteropodinae, as defined in the present sense, represents a polyphyletic group.

  • Chapter 13 Arachnids As
    CHAPTER THIRTEEN ARACHNIDS 13.1 The arachnid fauna of south central Seram As with insects, only a very few specimens compared with the total number of known species were collected in the field. Nevertheless, they do cover most species commonly encountered and named by the Nuaulu. A checklist of arachnid specimens recorded in the Nuaulu area during field- work is presented in table 22. 13.2 Nuaulu categories applied to arachnids excepting Acarida 13.2.1 kanopone Scorpions (SCORPIONIDA) and possibly also whip-scorpions ( URO- PYGI ). 13.2.2 riko-riko, nau asue The first term is consistently applied to harvestmen ( PHALANGIDA ). In the second, nau is a general term for augury and divination; asu = 'dog', asu- = 'cheek' + non-human possessive pronominal suffix. Nau asue is applied to the harvestman Altobunus formosus. It is probably a synonym for riko-riko, being used as a nick-name in circumstances in which it seems auspicious. 13.2.3 kahuneke hatu nohu inae Hatu nohu(e), meaning 'cavernous rock outcrop, cave', indicates the habitat of this spider; inae = 'mother'. As kahunekete is the generic term for spider we thus have 'mother cave spider'. Applied quite specifically to tailess whip scorpions, and generally encountered in rock fissures when hunting bats. 13.2.4 kahuneke ai ukune Ai ukune = 'treetop', far forest. Applied to various kinds of long- bodied spider, including Theridion and possibly Nephilia. It therefore seems to be applied to both hunters and spinners of irregular webs in forest habi- tats. - 201 - 13.2.5 kahuneke titie Titie = 'hot', so-called on account of the ability of this round-bodied spider to bite humans and cause a painful swelling.

  • Arachnides 76
    Arachnides, 2015, n°76 ARACHNIDES BULLETIN DE TERRARIOPHILIE ET DE RECHERCHES DE L’A.P.C.I. (Association Pour la Connaissance des Invertébrés) 76 2015 0 Arachnides, 2015, n°76 LES PREDATEURS DES SCORPIONS (ARACHNIDA : SCORPIONES) G. DUPRE Dans leur revue sur les prédateurs de scorpions, Polis, Sissom & Mac Cormick (1981) relèvent 150 espèces dont essentiellement des espèces adaptées au comportement nocturne de leur proie (chouettes, rongeurs, carnivores nocturnes) mais également des espèces diurnes (lézards, rongeurs, carnivores....) qui débusquent les scorpions sous les pierres ou dans leurs terriers. Dans une précédente note (Dupré, 2008) nous avions effectué un relevé afin d'actualiser cette étude de 1981. Sept ans après, de nouvelles données sont présentées dans cette synthèse. Voici un nouveau relevé des espèces prédatrices. Nous ne faisons pas mention des scorpions qui feront l'objet d'un futur article traité avec le cannibalisme. Explication des tableaux: La première colonne correspond aux prédateurs, la seconde aux régions concernées et la troisième aux références. Dans la mesure du possible, les noms scientifiques ont été rectifiés en fonction des synonymies ou des nouvelles combinaisons appliquées depuis les dates de publication d'origine.
