  • Arachnozoogeographical Analysis of the Boundary Between Eastern Palearctic and Indomalayan Region
    Historia naturalis bulgarica, 23: 5-36, 2016 Arachnozoogeographical analysis of the boundary between Eastern Palearctic and Indomalayan Region Petar Beron Abstract: This study aims to test how the distribution of various orders of Arachnida follows the classical subdivision of Asia and where the transitional zone between the Eastern Palearctic (Holarctic Kingdom) and the Indomalayan Region (Paleotropic) is situated. This boundary includes Thar Desert, Karakorum, Himalaya, a band in Central China, the line north of Taiwan and the Ryukyu Islands. The conclusion is that most families of Arachnida (90), excluding most of the representatives of Acari, are common for the Palearctic and Indomalayan Regions. There are no endemic orders or suborders in any of them. Regarding Arach- nida, their distribution does not justify the sharp difference between the two Kingdoms (Paleotropical and Holarctic) in Eastern Eurasia. The transitional zone (Sino-Japanese Realm) of Holt et al. (2013) also does not satisfy the criteria for outlining an area on the same footing as the Palearctic and Indomalayan Realms. Key words: Palearctic, Indomalayan, Arachnozoogeography, Arachnida According to the classical subdivision the region’s high mountains and plateaus.

  • A New Species of Melloina (Araneae: Paratropididae) from Venezuela

Avenida Vital Brazil 1500, 05503-900 São Paulo, SP, Brazil. E-mail: [email protected]; [email protected] ABSTRACT. A new species of Melloina Brignoli, 1985, Melloina santuario sp. nov., is described from a cave in Venezuela. This is the third species described in this rarely sampled genus, and the first species known from both male and female. The male of M. santuario sp. nov. is distinguished by a longer embolus and fewer number of spines on the anterior tarsi. Females and immatures are distinguished by having fewer numbers of labial cuspules. The description of a new species from male and female samples increases our knowledge about Melloina. This added knowledge is important to the under- standing of mygalomorph relationships, mainly in the Theraphosoidina, as Melloina is a basal genus within the Paratropididae. KEY WORDS.

ZooKeys 870: 77–100. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.870.35971 Abstract The current paper expands knowledge of two Chinese cave spider species originally described in the genus Maymena Gertsch, 1960: M. paquini Miller, Griswold & Yin, 2009 and M. kehen Miller, Griswold & Yin, 2009. With the exception of these two species, the genus Maymena is endemic to the western hemisphere, and new evidence presented here supports the creation of a new genus for the Chinese species, which we name Yamaneta gen. nov. The male of Y. kehen is described for the first time. Detailed illustrations of the habitus, male palps and epigyne are provided for these two species, as well as descriptions of their webs.

Molecular phylogenetic analyses have generally supported the monophyly of Atypoidea, but prior studies have not sampled all relevant taxa. Here we generated a dataset of ultraconserved element loci for all described atypoid genera, including taxa (Mecicobothrium and Hexurella) key to understanding familial monophyly, divergence times, and patterns of entrance web evolution. We show that the conserved regions of the arachnid UCE probe set target exons, such that it should be possible to combine UCE and transcriptome datasets in arachnids. We also show that different UCE probes sometimes target the same protein, and under the matching parameters used here show that UCE alignments sometimes include non- Submitted 1 February 2019 orthologs. Using multiple curated phylogenomic matrices we recover a monophyletic Accepted 28 March 2019 Published 3 May 2019 Atypoidea, and reveal that the family Mecicobothriidae comprises four separate and divergent lineages.

Shear Department of Biology Hampden-Sydney College Hampden-Sydney, Virginia 23943 ABSTRAC T The three populations of S. abboti studied exhibit much higher densities than the two of S. rufipes. In S. abboti mating occurs in July, egg laying in August, hatching in September, and the fully equipped and self-sufficient third instar spiderlings develop by November . The tubes of S. abboti are proportionately longer and have a greater aerial length to underground length ratio than do those of S. rufipes. Other differences in tube architecture exist . Both species capture and feed upon a wide variet y of ground arthropods and discard prey remains through the upper end of the tube . S. abboti males search for mates in daylight and appear to be generalized wasp-ant mimics . Our observations of S. abboti male behavior suggests that adult female tubes are marked by a contact sex pheromone . INTRODUCTION Despite their covert behavior and patchy abundance, purse-web spiders (Atypidae ) have attracted considerable attention from araneologists for at least two reasons . First , atypids possess an interesting mixture of primitive and specialized characteristics, thei r outstanding specializations being part of a unique strategy of capturing prey through th e walls of a silk tube, the purse-web.
