Magalhães Barata, 376, Caixa Postal 399, 66040-170, Belém, PA, Brazil. E-mails: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract A new species from Juruti River Plateau, Juruti, Pará, Brazil that fits the generic characters of Megaphobema is described. Megaphobema teceae n. sp. differs from the other four species known in this genus mainly by the presence of a conspicuous post-ocular process. This is the first record of the genus to both oriental Amazon and Brazil. Keywords: Araneae, Theraphosidae, Megaphobema, Brazilian Amazon, Neotropical, Taxonomy Introduction The genus Megaphobema Pocock 1901 comprises very large spiders from Central América (Costa Rica) and North-western South America (Colombia and Ecuador). Males are characterized by a palpal organ with a very wide concave-convex embolus with prolateral superior and inferior keels, and apical and prolateral accessory keels. The prolateral accessory keels are also present in males Sericopelma Ausserer 1875 but they can be distinguished from Megaphobema by the absence of a tibial apophysis. Females have one spermathecal receptacle transversely striated the synapomorphy of Megaphobema + Sericopelma + Theraphosa Thorell 1870. The genus has both Type I and III urticating hairs. Using these characters among others, this genus was placed in the apical portion of the cladogram of the Theraphosinae (Pérez-Miles et al.

    A Guide to Arthropods Bandelier National Monument Top left: Melanoplus akinus Top right: Vanessa cardui Bottom left: Elodes sp. Bottom right: Wolf Spider (Family Lycosidae) by David Lightfoot Compiled by Theresa Murphy Nov 2012 In collaboration with Collin Haffey, Craig Allen, David Lightfoot, Sandra Brantley and Kay Beeley WHAT ARE ARTHROPODS? And why are they important? What’s the difference between Arthropods and Insects? Most of this guide is comprised of insects. These are animals that have three body segments- head, thorax, and abdomen, three pairs of legs, and usually have wings, although there are several wingless forms of insects. Insects are of the Class Insecta and they make up the largest class of the phylum called Arthropoda (arthropods). However, the phylum Arthopoda includes other groups as well including Crustacea (crabs, lobsters, shrimps, barnacles, etc.), Myriapoda (millipedes, centipedes, etc.) and Arachnida (scorpions, king crabs, spiders, mites, ticks, etc.). Arthropods including insects and all other animals in this phylum are characterized as animals with a tough outer exoskeleton or body-shell and flexible jointed limbs that allow the animal to move. Although this guide is comprised mostly of insects, some members of the Myriapoda and Arachnida can also be found here. Remember they are all arthropods but only some of them are true ‘insects’. Entomologist - A scientist who focuses on the study of insects! What’s bugging entomologists? Although we tend to call all insects ‘bugs’ according to entomology a ‘true bug’ must be of the Order Hemiptera. So what exactly makes an insect a bug? Insects in the order Hemiptera have sucking, beak-like mouthparts, which are tucked under their “chin” when Metallic Green Bee (Agapostemon sp.) not in use.

  • 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.

  • A Specialised Hunting Strategy Used to Overcome Dangerous Spider Prey
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Nest usurpation: a specialised hunting strategy used to overcome dangerous spider prey Received: 18 January 2019 Ondřej Michálek 1, Yael Lubin 2 & Stano Pekár 1 Accepted: 14 March 2019 Hunting other predators is dangerous, as the tables can turn and the hunter may become the hunted. Published: xx xx xxxx Specialized araneophagic (spider eating) predators have evolved intriguing hunting strategies that allow them to invade spiders’ webs by adopting a stealthy approach or using aggressive mimicry. Here, we present a newly discovered, specialized hunting strategy of the araneophagic spider Poecilochroa senilis (Araneae: Gnaphosidae), which forces its way into the silk retreat of the potential spider prey and immobilizes it by swathing gluey silk onto its forelegs and mouthparts. Poecilochroa senilis has been reported from the nests of a several, often large, spider species in the Negev desert (Israel), suggesting specialization on spiders as prey. Nevertheless, in laboratory experiments, we found that P. senilis has a wider trophic niche, and fed readily on several small insect species. The specialized nest-invading attack was used more frequently with large spiders, and even small juvenile P. senilis were able to attack and subdue larger spiders. Our observations show that specifc hunting tactics, like nest usurpation, allow specialized predators to overcome defences of dangerous prey. Evolutionary arms races between prey and predators lead to the evolution of various defence mechanisms of the prey and counter-adaptations of predators to subdue such a prey1. Predator-prey arms races are ofen asym- metrical, as a prey organism is under stronger selection pressure2.

ZooKeys 526: 75–104. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.526.6315 Abstract The tarantula genusSericopelma was originally defined based on male specimens, most notably lacking tibial spurs on leg I. Early female specimens were unrecognised as Sericopelma, and typically placed in Eurypelma – a dumping ground for problem specimens. The first females were only later recognised, but authors failed to adequately define femaleSericopelma . Here, the holotypes of the Southern-most alleged Brachypelma species, B. embrithes (Chamberlin & Ivie, 1936) and B. angustum Valerio, 1980 were exam- ined, and finding both to possess defining characteristics of Sericopelma were transferred. The taxonomic attributes to define Sericopelma relative to Brachypelma and select other Neotropical genera are discussed, especially for females.

    Supplementary Information Supplementary Figures Supplementary Figure 1. Workflow. A schematic overview of the workflow used in this study. The genomes of velvet spider and tarantula were sequenced as well as the transcriptomes of body tissue, venom glands and silk glands. In addition, we performed high throughput shotgun proteomic analyses to provide functional support for genome annotation. 1 Supplementary Figure 2. Hierarchical gene model selection. Gene models were divided into three categories: Cufflinks, Velvet and Augustus. Cufflinks gene models have highest priority followed by Velvet and Augustus. First, all gene models were checked for proteomic support in prioritized order. If proteomics support was found, the gene model was selected and overlapping models with lower priority were filtered out. In the next step, all the Cufflinks gene models were selected, and overlapping models from Velvet and Augustus categories were filtered out. Velvet and Augustus gene models were selected only if they met one of the following criteria: 1. has homology to know genes or it contain a known domain. 2. is supported by other evidence. 3. has RNA-seq alignment coverage for at least 80% of the exonic region. 2 Supplementary Figure 3. Gene model classification. To identify gene models corresponding to transposable elements (TEs), RepeatScout1 was used to build a library of repeat elements. Gene models were categorized as repeats if their annotation contained TE-related keywords and more than 50% of the gene model exons overlapped with repeat masked regions or if they were single-exon genes with more than 70% repeat masked overlap. Next, we categorized gene models as protein coding if they had a coding sequence (CDS) length of more than 900 bp, contained conserved protein domains or had homology to known proteins.
