Davus Pentaloris (Hobby Davus pentaloris (Hobby "fasciatum") Wissenschaftlicher Name: Davus pentaloris Unterfamilie: Theraphosinae Erstbeschreiber: (Simon, 1888) Grösse: bis ca. 5 cm Herkunft: Guatemala, Mexiko Lebensraum: Bodenbewohner Temperatur Tag: ca. 25 - 27°C Temperatur Nacht: 20 - 22°C Luftfeuchtigkeit: 60 - 80% Grösse des Terrariums: Es reicht eine Grundfläche von 30 x 30cm. Bodengrund: Feuchtigkeitsspeicherndes Substrat. Blumenerde oder Blumenerde mit Walderde gemischt. Pflanzen: Hier kommen vor allem feuchtigkeitsliebende Pflanzen zum Einsatz. Schau unseren Pflanzenindex an. Bemerkungen: Laut dem World Spiderkatalog wird die Gattung Davus nun wieder als valide angesehen und aus der Synonomyisierung mit Cyclosternum befreit. D.pentaloris wird im Hobby oft als Davus fasciatus ( Cyclosternum fasciatum) gehandelt. Die Art wurde aufgrund der Spermathek jedoch der Art Davus pentaloris zugeordnet, als Grundlage dienten Vergleiche der Spermathekenform wie bei Schmidt abgebildet. Bei D.pentaloris handelt es sich um eine eher klein bleibende Vogelspinne welche aus den Trockenwäldern von Guatemala und Mexiko stammt. Da diese Art aber seit 15 Jahren aus Nachzuchten angeboten wird und genaue Fundorte sowie genaue Angaben zur Lebensweise kaum vorhanden sind, ist es schwierig genaue Infos abzugeben. In den Terrarien lässt sich diese Art relativ problemlos halten und auch züchten. Der Bodengrund sollte mind. 10 cm betragen, da diese Art auch gerne gräbt. Das Substrat sollte angefeuchtet sein und jede Woche ein wenig mit Wasser benetzt werden. Versteckmöglichkeiten aus Korkrinde oder anderen Hölzern werden gerne angenommen und dementsprechend als Schutz benutzt. Ich konnte noch kein ausgeprägtes Spinnverhalten ausmachen und auch Grabtätigkeiten halten sich bis anhin in Grenzen. Es wird oft von der Schnelligkeit und Schreckhaftigkeit dieser Art berichten, was ich auch nicht von meinem Tier nicht behaupten kann. D. pentaloris wächst relativ zügig bei guter Fütterung. Männchen werden in 2 - 2 ½ Jahren, Weibchen in 3 - 3 ½ Jahren adult. Die Männchen sind mit einer Körpergrösse von ca. 3 cm nicht gerade gross. Die Verpaarung kann sehr ruppig verlaufen. Das Männchen bringt sich lange in Position, bevor er zum eigentlichen Geschlechtsakt übergeht. Dieser dauert dann nur einige Sekunden. Mein Weibchen hat sich in Sekundenbruchteilen nach der Einführung des einen Embulbus in die Epigastralfurche in das Männchen verbissen. Es ist also Vorsicht geboten. Nach recht kurzer Zeit (Berichten zu Folge zwischen 17 - 30 Tagen) baut das Weibchen einen Kokon. Nach weiteren ca. 25 - 30 Tagen sind die Jungtiere im 2. Larvenstadium. Pro Kokon können zwischen 150 - 500 Junge enthalten sein. Diese sind sehr klein und können Anfangs nur mit Drosophila oder Ofenfischchen gefüttert werden. Sind sie einmal in die zweite bis dritte Fresshaut gekommen, werden auch Mikroheimchen angenommen.

Hasta el año 2014 se conocían 2,295 especies en México, de las cuales cerca del 70 % son endémicas, por lo que son los animales con mayor endemismo nacional. La Colección de Artrópodos de la FCN-UAQ cuenta con 197 especímenes de arañas identificadas, por lo que se revisaron e inventariaron las arañas que hasta ahora la conforman. Se identificaron identidades taxonómicas a nivel género para aneomorfas y se registraron especies para las migalomorfas, además se incluyó el sexo de cada individuo, registrando así 22 familias y 44 géneros para las araneoformas y dos familias, 14 géneros para las migalomorfas. La finalidad del estudio es la formalización de una colección de arañas para referencia y no únicamente se utilicen los ejemplares para docencia. Palabras clave: Arañas, Colección biológica, identidades taxonómicas, género, familia.

The case of Embrik Strand (Arachnida: Araneae) Wolfgang Nentwig, Theo Blick, Daniel Gloor, Peter Jäger & Christian Kropf doi: 10.30963/aramit5904 Abstract. When the museums of Lübeck, Stuttgart, Tübingen and partly of Wiesbaden were destroyed during World War II between 1942 and 1945, also all or parts of their type material were destroyed, among them types from spider species described by Embrik Strand bet- ween 1906 and 1917. He did not illustrate type material from 181 species and one subspecies and described them only in an insufficient manner. These species were never recollected during more than 110 years and no additional taxonomically relevant information was published in the arachnological literature. It is impossible to recognize them, so we declare these 181 species here as nomina dubia. Four of these species belong to monotypic genera, two of them to a ditypic genus described by Strand in the context of the mentioned species descriptions. Consequently, without including valid species, the five genera Carteroniella Strand, 1907, Eurypelmella Strand, 1907, Theumella Strand, 1906, Thianella Strand, 1907 and Tmeticides Strand, 1907 are here also declared as nomina dubia. Palystes modificus minor Strand, 1906 is a junior synonym of P.

  • MAHS Care Sheet Master List *By Eric Roscoe Care Sheets Are Often An
    MAHS Care Sheet Master List *By Eric Roscoe Care sheets are often an excellent starting point for learning more about the biology and husbandry of a given species, including their housing/enclosure requirements, temperament and handling, diet , and other aspects of care. MAHS itself has created many such care sheets for a wide range of reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates we believe to have straightforward care requirements, and thus make suitable family and beginner’s to intermediate level pets. Some species with much more complex, difficult to meet, or impracticable care requirements than what can be adequately explained in a one page care sheet may be multiple pages. We can also provide additional links, resources, and information on these species we feel are reliable and trustworthy if requested. If you would like to request a copy of a care sheet for any of the species listed below, or have a suggestion for an animal you don’t see on our list, contact us to let us know! Unfortunately, for liability reasons, MAHS is unable to create or publish care sheets for medically significant venomous species. This includes species in the families Crotilidae, Viperidae, and Elapidae, as well as the Helodermatidae (the Gila Monsters and Mexican Beaded Lizards) and some medically significant rear fanged Colubridae. Those that are serious about wishing to learn more about venomous reptile husbandry that cannot be adequately covered in one to three page care sheets should take the time to utilize all available resources by reading books and literature, consulting with, and working with an experienced and knowledgeable mentor in order to learn the ropes hands on.

Abstract Background and purpose Naturally occurring dysfunction in NaV channels results in complex disorders such as chronic pain, making these channels an attractive target for new therapies. In the pursuit of novel NaV modulators, we investigated spider venoms for new inhibitors of NaV channels. Experimental Approach We used high-throughput screens to identify a NaV modulator in venom of the spider Davus fasciatus.

  • 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.

(Association Pour la Connaissance des Invertébrés) 78 2016 0 Arachnides n°78, 2016 GRADIENTS DE LATITUDINALITÉ CHEZ LES SCORPIONS (ARACHNIDA: SCORPIONES). G. DUPRÉ Résumé. La répartition des communautés animales et végétales s'effectue selon un gradient latitudinal essentiellement climatique des pôles vers l'équateur. Les écosystèmes terrestres sont très variés et peuvent être des forêts boréales, des forêts tempérés, des forêts méditerranéennes, des déserts, des savanes ou encore des forêts tropicales. De nombreux auteurs admettent qu'un gradient de biodiversité s'accroit des pôles vers l'équateur (Sax, 2001; Boyero, 2006; Hallé, 2010). Nous avons tenté de vérifier ce fait pour les scorpions. Introduction. La répartition latitudinale des scorpions dans le monde se situe entre les latitudes 50° nord et 55° sud (Fig.1). Aucune étude n'a été entreprise pour préciser cette répartition à l'intérieur de ces limites. Ce vaste territoire englobe des biomes latitudinaux très différents y compris d'un continent à l'autre. Par exemple les zones désertiques en Australie ne sont pas situées aux mêmes latitudes que les zones désertiques africaines. A la même latitude on peut trouver la forêt tropicale amazonienne et la savane du Kénya, ce qui bien sûr implique une faune scorpionique écologiquement bien différente. Les résultats de cette étude sont présentés avec un certain nombre de difficultés discutées ci-après. Fig. 1. Carte de répartition mondiale des scorpions. Matériel et méthodes. L'étude a été arrêtée au 20 août 2016 donc sans tenir compte des espèces décrites après cette date.

Arnedo, Rosie Gillespie, Jonathan Coddington, & Gustavo Hormiga The family Theridiidae (cob-web spiders) is one of the largest spider families, comprising over 2000 described species in 73 genera and exhibiting extreme diversity in morphology, ecology and behavior. Theridiids are unique in including many cooperative or quasisocial species, a behavior otherwise very rare in arachnids. Theridiids include some very familiar species, such as the common house spider (Achaearanea tepidariorum) and the widow spiders (Latrodectus spp.). Despite their relatively high profile, systematic work on the family has so far been limited to the inclusion of a few of its members in family level phylogenetic analyses. We present the first cladistic analysis of a wide selection of theridiid genera based on molecular and morphological data. Apart from presenting a higher level phylogenetic hypothesis of theridiid interrelations, we address questions such as their sister relationship with nesticids, the monophyly and placement of the putative theridiid subfamily Hadrotarsinae, and the evolution of several morphological traits. CANNIBALISM AS A FACTOR REGULATING POPULATION DENSITY IN THE WOLF SPIDER PARDOSA MILVINA (ARANEAE, LYCOSIDAE) Robert Balfour, Sean E. Walker & Ann L. Rypstra Cannibalism has been suggested as a factor that can regulate population density in wolf spiders. We used a series of laboratory and field experiments to determine if cannibalism occurs in Pardosa milvina and if it is density dependent. Field collected Pardosa were paired in laboratory arenas in order to measure the level of aggression.

Received: 11 July 2019; Accepted: 15 August 2019; Published: 22 August 2019 Abstract: Over the two last decades, venom toxins have been explored as alternatives to opioids to treat chronic debilitating pain. At present, approximately 20 potential analgesic toxins, mainly from spider venoms, are known to inhibit with high affinity the NaV1.7 subtype of voltage-gated sodium (NaV) channels, the most promising genetically validated antinociceptive target identified so far. The present study aimed to consolidate the development of phlotoxin 1 (PhlTx1), a 34-amino acid and 3-disulfide bridge peptide of a Phlogiellus genus spider, as an antinociceptive agent by improving its affinity and selectivity for the human (h) NaV1.7 subtype.
