The case of Embrik Strand (Arachnida: Araneae) 22-29 Arachnologische Mitteilungen / Arachnology Letters 59: 22-29 Karlsruhe, April 2020 How to deal with destroyed type material? 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.

This lot (referred to herein as ‘the site’) is located approximately 18 kilometres (km) south of the Perth Central Business District within the City of Melville. An ecologist from Emerge Associates visited the site on 24 June 2019 and undertook a ‘level 1’ fauna survey and a targeted black cockatoo survey. During the survey targeted searches for fauna species were conducted with a particular reference for ‘threatened’ and ‘priority’ fauna species and an assessment was made on the type and conservation significance of fauna habitat across the site.

  • Tapetosa, a New Monotypic Wolf Spider Genus from Western Australia (Araneae: Lycosidae: Lycosinae)
    Records of the Western Australian Museum 25: 309–314 (2009). Tapetosa, a new monotypic wolf spider genus from Western Australia (Araneae: Lycosidae: Lycosinae) Volker W.

Waldock1 1Department of Terrestrial Zoology, Western Australian Museum, Locked Bag 49, Welshpool DC, Western Australia 6986, Australia.

Tapetosa belongs to the lycosid subfamily Lycosinae, but has a unique somatic morphology amongst wolf spiders, which is characterised by a dorso-ventrally flattened cephalothorax and abdomen associated with the spiders inhabiting narrow crevices under the granite sheets of rocky outcrops. The central tarsal claw is reduced and covered by extended scopulate setae probably facilitating movement on solid rocky surfaces. The tegulum of the male pedipalp carries a unique retrolateral protrusion. IntroductIon lack of adult specimens ensured that the Carpet Wolf Spider could not be assigned to any of the four The first mention of an undescribed wolf spider subfamilies of Lycosidae known from Australia, exclusively inhabiting crevices under the rock Artoriinae Framenau, 2007; Zoicinae Lehtinen & slabs on granite outcrops in southwestern Western Hippa, 1979; Venoniinae Lehtinen & Hippa, 1979, Australia was by Barbara York Main in her classic or Lycosinae Sundevall, 1833.

(= Lycosa errans Hogg, 1905 syn. nov.; = Lycosa perinflata Pulleine, 1922 syn. nov.; = Lycosa skeeti Pulleine, 1922 syn. nov.); Hoggicosa bicolor (McKay, 1973) comb. nov.; Hoggicosa brennani sp. nov.; Hoggicosa duracki (McKay, 1975) comb. nov.; Hoggicosa forresti (McKay, 1973) comb. nov.; Hoggicosa natashae sp. nov.; Hoggicosa snelli (McKay, 1975) comb. nov.; Hoggicosa storri (McKay, 1973) comb. nov.; and Hoggicosa wolodymyri sp. nov. The Namibian Hoggicosa exigua Roewer, 1960 is transferred to Hogna, Hogna exigua (Roewer, 1960) comb. nov. A phylogenetic analysis including nine Hoggicosa species, 11 lycosine species from Australia and four from overseas, with Arctosa cinerea Fabricius, 1777 as outgroup, supported the monophyly of Hoggicosa, with a larger distance between the epigynum anterior pockets compared to the width of the posterior transverse part. The analysis found that an unusual sexual dimorphism for wolf spiders (females more colourful than males), evident in four species of Hoggicosa, has evolved multiple times. Hoggicosa are burrowing lycosids, several constructing doors from sand or debris, and are predominantly found in semi-arid to arid regions of Australia.
