Does Argentine Ant Invasion Conserve Colouring Variation of Myrmecomorphic Jumping Spider?
Open Journal of Animal Sciences, 2014, 4, 144-151 Published Online June 2014 in SciRes. http://www.scirp.org/journal/ojas http://dx.doi.org/10.4236/ojas.2014.43019 Argentine Ant Affects Ant-Mimetic Arthropods: Does Argentine Ant Invasion Conserve Colouring Variation of Myrmecomorphic Jumping Spider? Yoshifumi Touyama1, Fuminori Ito2 1Niho, Minami-ku, Hiroshima City, Japan 2Laboratory of Entomology, Faculty of Agriculture, Kagawa University, Ikenobe, Japan Email: [email protected] Received 23 April 2014; revised 3 June 2014; accepted 22 June 2014 Copyright © 2014 by authors and Scientific Research Publishing Inc. This work is licensed under the Creative Commons Attribution International License (CC BY). http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Abstract Argentine ant invasion changed colour-polymorphic composition of ant-mimetic jumping spider Myrmarachne in southwestern Japan. In Argentine ant-free sites, most of Myrmarachne exhibited all-blackish colouration. In Argentine ant-infested sites, on the other hand, blackish morph de- creased, and bicoloured (i.e. partly bright-coloured) morphs increased in dominance. Invasive Argentine ant drives away native blackish ants. Disappearance of blackish model ants supposedly led to malfunction of Batesian mimicry of Myrmarachne. Keywords Batesian Mimicry, Biological Invasion, Linepithema humile, Myrmecomorphy, Myrmarachne, Polymorphism 1. Introduction It has attracted attention of biologists that many arthropods morphologically and/or behaviorally resemble ants [1]-[4]. Resemblance of non-ant arthropods to aggressive and/or unpalatable ants is called myrmecomorphy (ant-mimicry). Especially, spider myrmecomorphy has been described through many literatures [5]-[9]. Myr- mecomorphy is considered to be an example of Batesian mimicry gaining protection from predators. -

Arthropods of Elm Fork Preserve
Arthropods of Elm Fork Preserve Arthropods are characterized by having jointed limbs and exoskeletons. They include a diverse assortment of creatures: Insects, spiders, crustaceans (crayfish, crabs, pill bugs), centipedes and millipedes among others. Column Headings Scientific Name: The phenomenal diversity of arthropods, creates numerous difficulties in the determination of species. Positive identification is often achieved only by specialists using obscure monographs to ‘key out’ a species by examining microscopic differences in anatomy. For our purposes in this survey of the fauna, classification at a lower level of resolution still yields valuable information. For instance, knowing that ant lions belong to the Family, Myrmeleontidae, allows us to quickly look them up on the Internet and be confident we are not being fooled by a common name that may also apply to some other, unrelated something. With the Family name firmly in hand, we may explore the natural history of ant lions without needing to know exactly which species we are viewing. In some instances identification is only readily available at an even higher ranking such as Class. Millipedes are in the Class Diplopoda. There are many Orders (O) of millipedes and they are not easily differentiated so this entry is best left at the rank of Class. A great deal of taxonomic reorganization has been occurring lately with advances in DNA analysis pointing out underlying connections and differences that were previously unrealized. For this reason, all other rankings aside from Family, Genus and Species have been omitted from the interior of the tables since many of these ranks are in a state of flux. -

Boxelder Bug
BOXELDER BUG Integrated Pest Management for Home Gardeners and Landscape Professionals The western boxelder bug (Boisea rubrolineata) is often a nuisance pest around and in homes. Boxelder bugs usually feed on the leaves, flowers, and seedpods of the female or seedbearing box elder tree (Acer negundo), although they may also subsist on male box elder trees and occasionally occur on maple and ash trees. They may feed on the fruits of almond, apple, cherry, peach, Figure 1. Boxelder bug adult and nymphs. Figure 2. Young nymph of western box- pear, and plum trees, and on grapes, (J. K. Clark) elder bug, Boisea rubrolineata. where their feeding punctures cause (J. K. Clark) the fruit to become deformed. Large numbers of the bug usually occur only on female box elder trees. IDENTIFICATION When full grown, the boxelder bug is about 1/2 inch long and one-third as wide. Adults are mostly black and have three red lines on the pronotum of the thorax (one down the middle and on each margin) and several fine Figure 3. Boxelder bug eggs on leaf. Figure 4. Adult squash bug. red lines on each wing (Figure 1). The (J. K. Clark) (J. K. Clark) wings lie flat on the bug’s back when it is at rest. The abdomen is red. The young nymphs are bright red (Figure 2) and when approaching adulthood, become marked with black and begin to develop black wing pads. Eggs are yellow when first laid but become red as nymphs develop inside (Figure 3). Boxelder bugs are true bugs (Order: Hemiptera) in the family Rhopalidae.
