  • Wanless 1980A
    A revision of the spider genus Macopaeus (Araneae : Salticidae) F. R. Wanless Department of Zoology, British Museum (Natural History) Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD Introduction The genus Macopaeus Simon, 1900 formerly included three species. The type species M. spinosus Simon belongs in the subfamily Lyssomaninae and is clearly related to Asemonea O. P. -Cambridge and Pandisus Simon. The original description of M. spinosus was based on a female, but Simon (1900) did not indicate the number of specimens examined. A female type specimen was examined by Roewer (1965) who diagnosed the genus but did not provide a description of the species. Despite the fact that this specimen has been subsequently lost and that the epigyne has never been figured, the spines on leg I are arranged in a distinctive manner and it is possible to identify the species with reasonable certainty. The other two species M. madagascarensis Peckham & Peckham from Madagascar, and M. celebensis Merian from Celebes are not related to M. spinosus, but belong in the genus Brettus Simon which has recently been revised by the author (Wanless, 1979). In the present paper Macopaeus is redefined; M. spinosus, Brettus celebensis comb, n., and B. madagascarensis comb, n., are described and figured; and a neotype is designated for M. spinosus. The measurements were made in the manner described by Wanless (1978). Genus MACOPAEUS Simon Macopaeus Simon, 1900 : 381.

    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN (Online): 2319-7064 Index Copernicus Value (2013): 6.14 | Impact Factor (2014): 5.611 The Spiders Diversity from Different Habitats around Biosciences, Vallabh Vidyanagar B. M. Parmar Zoology Department, Sheth M.N. Science College, Patan, Gujarat-384 265 Abstract: A preliminary study of spiders was carried out in June 2012 to July 2013 from five sites around Biosciences, Vallabh Vidyanagar. As the results of collected spiders, total 90 species belonging to 66 genera spread over 24 families are recorded from five sites of Vallabhvidyanagar. The dominant family Araneidae had the highest number of species (18); followed by Salticidae (13), Thomisidae (10) and Tetragnathidae (7), Oxyopidae (5). Most of the other families had less than 5 species. This small region has detected more than 5% of Indian spiders. Keywords: Spiders, diversity, Anand, Gujarat 1.

  • Predatory Behavior of Jumping Spiders
    Annual Reviews www.annualreviews.org/aronline Annu Rev. Entomol. 19%. 41:287-308 Copyrighl8 1996 by Annual Reviews Inc. All rights reserved PREDATORY BEHAVIOR OF JUMPING SPIDERS R. R. Jackson and S. D. Pollard Department of Zoology, University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand KEY WORDS: salticids, salticid eyes, Portia, predatory versatility, aggressive mimicry ABSTRACT Salticids, the largest family of spiders, have unique eyes, acute vision, and elaborate vision-mediated predatory behavior, which is more pronounced than in any other spider group. Diverse predatory strategies have evolved, including araneophagy,aggressive mimicry, myrmicophagy ,and prey-specific preycatch- ing behavior. Salticids are also distinctive for development of behavioral flexi- bility, including conditional predatory strategies, the use of trial-and-error to solve predatory problems, and the undertaking of detours to reach prey. Predatory behavior of araneophagic salticids has undergone local adaptation to local prey, and there is evidence of predator-prey coevolution. Trade-offs between mating and predatory strategies appear to be important in ant-mimicking and araneo- phagic species. INTRODUCTION With over 4000 described species (1 l), jumping spiders (Salticidae) compose by Fordham University on 04/13/13. For personal use only. the largest family of spiders. They are characterized as cursorial, diurnal predators with excellent eyesight. Although spider eyes usually lack the struc- tural complexity required for acute vision, salticids have unique, complex eyes with resolution abilities without known parallels in animals of comparable size Annu. Rev. Entomol. 1996.41:287-308. Downloaded from www.annualreviews.org (98). Salticids are the end-product of an evolutionary process in which a small silk-producing animal with a simple nervous system acquires acute vision, resulting in a diverse array of complex predatory strategies.

  • Molecular Insights Into the Phylogenetic Structure of the Spider

Molecular insights into the phylo- doi:10.1111/j.1463-6409.2007.00280.x genetic structure of the spider genus Theridion (Araneae, Theridiidae) and the origin of the Hawaiian Theridion-like fauna. — Zoologica Scripta, 36, 337–352. The Hawaiian happy face spider (Theridion grallator Simon, 1900), named for a remarkable abdominal colour pattern resembling a smiling face, has served as a model organism for under- standing the generation of genetic diversity. Theridion grallator is one of 11 endemic Hawaiian species of the genus reported to date. Asserting the origin of island endemics informs on the evolutionary context of diversification, and how diversity has arisen on the islands. Studies on the genus Theridion in Hawaii, as elsewhere, have long been hampered by its large size (> 600 species) and poor definition. Here we report results of phylogenetic analyses based on DNA sequences of five genes conducted on five diverse species of Hawaiian Theridion, along with the most intensive sampling of Theridiinae analysed to date. Results indicate that the Hawai- ian Islands were colonised by two independent Theridiinae lineages, one of which originated in the Americas. Both lineages have undergone local diversification in the archipelago and have convergently evolved similar bizarre morphs. Our findings confirm para- or polyphyletic status of the largest Theridiinae genera: Theridion, Achaearanea and Chrysso.

A. V. College, J. P. University, Chhapra, India 2School of Environmental Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, India (Accepted November 21, 2015) ABSTRACT Present study was conducted to reveals the community structure and diversity of spider species in different habitat types (gardens, crop fields and houses) of Saran; a part of Indo – Gangetic Plain, India. This area has very rich diversity of flora and fauna due to its climatic conditions, high soil fer- tility and plenty of water availability. The spiders were sampled using two semi-quantitative methods and pitfall traps. A total of 1400 individual adult spiders belonging to 50 species, 29 genera and 15 families were recorded during 1st December 2013 to 28th February 2014. Spider species of houses were distinctive from other habitats it showed low spider species richness. The dominant spider fami- lies were also differs with habitat types. Araneidae, Pholcidae and Salticidae were the dominant spi- der families in gardens, houses and crop fields respectively. Comparison of beta diversity showed higher dissimilarity in spider communities of gardens and houses and higher similarity between spi- der communities of crop fields and gardens. We find that spiders are likely to be more abundant and species rich in gardens than in other habitat types. Habitat structural component had great impact on spider species richness and abundance in studied habitats.

Hewan ini merupakan kelompok terbesar dan memiliki keanekaragaman yang sangat tinggi dalam Filum Arthropoda. Jumlah spesies laba-laba yang telah dideskripsikan pada saat ini sekitar 44.906 spesies, digolongkan dalam 114 famili dan 3.935 genus. Laba-laba memiliki peran pada tanaman pertanian, perkebunan, dan perumahan sebagai predator serangga hama. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui keanekaragaman laba-laba pada hutan gaharu di kawasan Pusuk, Lombok Barat. Penelitian ini telah dilaksanakan pada bulan April-Juli 2018. Sampel laba-laba di koleksi secara acak (random sampling) pada 30 plot yang masing-masing berukuran 9 x 9m. Metode pengambilan sampel menggunakan perangkap jebak (pitfall trap), jaring ayun (sweep net) dan aspirator. Identifikasi sampel laba-laba berdasarkan karakter morfologinya. Analisis data dilakukan dengan menghitung Indeks Keanekaragaman Shannon-Wiener (H’) dan Indeks dominansi. Hasil penelitian menemukan 10 famili laba-laba yang terdiri dari 60 spesies dan 292 individu. Dari ketiga metode koleksi laba-laba menunjukkan hasil berbeda, metode jaring ayun mengoleksi 36 spesies laba-laba, metode aspirator mengoleksi 27 spesies dan metode pitfall trap hanya ditemukan 5 spesies. Berdasakan hasil perhitungan diperoleh indeks keanekaragaman spesies laba-laba di hutan gaharu di kawasan Pusuk adalah 1,367 sedangkan indeks dominansi adalah 0,111. Indeks keanekaragaman spesies termasuk ke dalam kategori sedang.
