Checklist of Australian Spiders (Total of 3,937 Species in 677 Genera and 80 Families* by Volker W Checklist of Australian Spiders (total of 3,937 species in 677 genera and 80 families* by Volker W. Framenau Version 1.43: Sunday, 18 October 2020 For feedback and corrections please contact: [email protected] *The family Stenochilidae occurs in Australia (Framenau, Baehr, Zborowski 2014) but since no species have been published for this country, this family is currently not listed with any species below. Therefore, there are at least 81 spider families in Australia. this page: Araneomorphae Agelenidae Oramia Araneomorphae Agelenidae C. L.

  • The Short-Range Endemic Invertebrate Fauna of the Ravensthorpe Range
    THE SHORT-RANGE ENDEMIC INVERTEBRATE FAUNA OF THE RAVENSTHORPE RANGE MARK S. HARVEY MEI CHEN LENG Department of Terrestrial Zoology Western Australian Museum June 2008 2 Executive Summary An intensive survey of short-range endemic invertebrates in the Ravensthorpe Range at 79 sites revealed a small but significant fauna of myriapods and arachnids. Four species of short-range endemic invertebrates were found: • The millipede Antichiropus sp. R • The millipede Atelomastix sp. C • The millipede Atelomastix sp. P • The pseudoscorpion Amblyolpium sp. “WA1” Atelomastix sp. C is the only species found to be endemic to the Ravensthorpe Range and was found at 14 sites. Antichiropus sp. R, Atelomastix sp. P and Amblyolpium sp. “WA1” are also found at nearby locations. Sites of high importance include: site 40 with 7 species; sites 7 and 48 each with 5 species; and sites 18 and 44 each with 4 species. WA Museum - Ravensthorpe Range Survey 3 Introduction Australia contains a multitude of terrestrial invertebrate fauna species, with many yet to be discovered and described. Arthropods alone were recently estimated to consist of approximately more than 250,000 species (Yeates et al. 2004). The majority of these belong to the arthropod classes Insecta and Arachnida, and although many have relatively wide distributions across the landscape, some are highly restricted in range with special ecological requirements. These taxa, termed short-range endemics (Harvey 2002b), are taxa categorised as having poor dispersal abilities and/or requiring very specific habitats, usually with naturally small distributional ranges of less than 10,000 km2 and the following ecological and life-history traits: • poor powers of dispersal; • confinement to discontinuous habitats; • usually highly seasonal, only active during cooler, wetter periods; and • low levels of fecundity.

  • A Protocol for Online Documentation of Spider Biodiversity Inventories Applied to a Mexican Tropical Wet Forest (Araneae, Araneomorphae)

C. P. 04510. Del. Coyoacán, Ciudad de México, México. E-mail: [email protected] 2Corresponding author Abstract Spider community inventories have relatively well-established standardized collecting protocols. Such protocols set rules for the orderly acquisition of samples to estimate community parameters and to establish comparisons between areas. These methods have been tested worldwide, providing useful data for inventory planning and optimal sampling allocation efforts. The taxonomic counterpart of biodiversity inventories has received considerably less attention. Species lists and their relative abundances are the only link between the community parameters resulting from a biotic inventory and the biology of the species that live there. However, this connection is lost or speculative at best for species only partially identified (e. g., to genus but not to species). This link is particularly important for diverse tropical regions were many taxa are undescribed or little known such as spiders. One approach to this problem has been the development of biodiversity inventory websites that document the morphology of the species with digital images organized as standard views.

E-mail: [email protected] The Gallieniellidae is a small family of ground-dwelling gnaphosoid spiders with a Gondwanan distribution, currently including 10 genera and 55 species (World Spider Catalog 2017). The composition of the group remains unresolved, as different phylogenies have either supported (Platnick 2002; Haddad et al. 2009) or disputed (Ramírez 2014; Wheeler et al. in press) its monophyly. Presently, Austrachelas Lawrence, 1938 is one of four genera recorded from the Afrotropical Region. Austrachelas and Drassodella Hewitt, 1916 are both endemic to South Africa (Tucker 1923; Haddad et al. 2009; Mbo 2017), while Gallieniella Millot, 1947 and Legendrena Platnick, 1984 are endemic to Madagascar (Platnick 1984, 1990, 1995). Amongst the Afrotropical genera, only Austrachelas has been revised to date (Haddad et al. 2009). In the current study, the unknown male of A. bergi Haddad, Lyle, Bosselaers & Ramírez, 2009 is described for the first time, new distribution records are presented for this species, and a new species, A.

  • Araneae (Spider) Photos
    Araneae (Spider) Photos Araneae (Spiders) About Information on: Spider Photos of Links to WWW Spiders Spiders of North America Relationships Spider Groups Spider Resources -- An Identification Manual About Spiders As in the other arachnid orders, appendage specialization is very important in the evolution of spiders. In spiders the five pairs of appendages of the prosoma (one of the two main body sections) that follow the chelicerae are the pedipalps followed by four pairs of walking legs. The pedipalps are modified to serve as mating organs by mature male spiders. These modifications are often very complicated and differences in their structure are important characteristics used by araneologists in the classification of spiders. Pedipalps in female spiders are structurally much simpler and are used for sensing, manipulating food and sometimes in locomotion. It is relatively easy to tell mature or nearly mature males from female spiders (at least in most groups) by looking at the pedipalps -- in females they look like functional but small legs while in males the ends tend to be enlarged, often greatly so. In young spiders these differences are not evident. There are also appendages on the opisthosoma (the rear body section, the one with no walking legs) the best known being the spinnerets. In the first spiders there were four pairs of spinnerets. Living spiders may have four e.g., (liphistiomorph spiders) or three pairs (e.g., mygalomorph and ecribellate araneomorphs) or three paris of spinnerets and a silk spinning plate called a cribellum (the earliest and many extant araneomorph spiders). Spinnerets' history as appendages is suggested in part by their being projections away from the opisthosoma and the fact that they may retain muscles for movement Much of the success of spiders traces directly to their extensive use of silk and poison.
