  • Behavioral Roles of the Sexually Dimorphic Structures in the Male Harvestman, Phalangium Opilio (Opiliones, Phalangiidae)
    1763 Behavioral roles of the sexually dimorphic structures in the male harvestman, Phalangium opilio (Opiliones, Phalangiidae) Rodrigo H. Willemart, Jean-Pierre Farine, Alfredo V. Peretti, and Pedro Gnaspini Abstract: In various animal species, male sexual dimorphic characters may be used during intrasexual contests as orna- ments to attract females, or to hold them before, during, or after copulation. In the well-known harvestman, Phalangium opilio L., 1758, the behavioral functions of these male sexually dimorphic structures have never been studied in detail. Therefore, in addition to a morphometric study, 21 male contests and 43 sexual interactions were analyzed. Our observa- tions revealed that during contests, the male cheliceral horns form a surface by which the contestants use to push each other face-to-face while rapidly tapping their long pedipalps against the pedipalps of the opponent, occasionally twisting the opponent’s pedipalp. Scanning electron micrographs revealed contact mechanoreceptors on the pedipalp that would de- tect the intensity–frequency of contact with the contender’s pedipalp. Larger males won almost all contests, whereas the loser rapidly fled. During sexual interactions, the longer pedipalps of the male held legs IV of the female, whereas males with shorter pedipalps held the female by legs III. No contact with the male pedipalps and chelicerae by the females was visible before, during, or after copulation. Soon after copulating, males typically bent over the female, positioning their cheliceral horns against the females’s dorsum. Consequently, our data show that the cheliceral horns and the longer pedi- palps of the male seem to play an important role, during both intersexual and intrasexual encountering.

  • Anatomically Modern Carboniferous Harvestmen Demonstrate Early Cladogenesis and Stasis in Opiliones
    ARTICLE Received 14 Feb 2011 | Accepted 27 Jul 2011 | Published 23 Aug 2011 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms1458 Anatomically modern Carboniferous harvestmen demonstrate early cladogenesis and stasis in Opiliones Russell J. Garwood1, Jason A. Dunlop2, Gonzalo Giribet3 & Mark D. Sutton1 Harvestmen, the third most-diverse arachnid order, are an ancient group found on all continental landmasses, except Antarctica. However, a terrestrial mode of life and leathery, poorly mineralized exoskeleton makes preservation unlikely, and their fossil record is limited. The few Palaeozoic species discovered to date appear surprisingly modern, but are too poorly preserved to allow unequivocal taxonomic placement. Here, we use high-resolution X-ray micro-tomography to describe two new harvestmen from the Carboniferous (~305 Myr) of France. The resulting computer models allow the first phylogenetic analysis of any Palaeozoic Opiliones, explicitly resolving both specimens as members of different extant lineages, and providing corroboration for molecular estimates of an early Palaeozoic radiation within the order. Furthermore, remarkable similarities between these fossils and extant harvestmen implies extensive morphological stasis in the order. Compared with other arachnids—and terrestrial arthropods generally—harvestmen are amongst the first groups to evolve fully modern body plans. 1 Department of Earth Science and Engineering, Imperial College, London SW7 2AZ, UK. 2 Museum für Naturkunde at the Humboldt University Berlin, D-10115 Berlin, Germany. 3 Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology and Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138, USA.

  • Harvestmen (Arachnida, Opiliones) from Talysh, with Description of a New Genus and Other Taxonomical Changes

One genus and species were new for science and one new for the region. Two names have to be synonymized and one species transferred to other genus. Key words: Opiliones, Talysh, Azerbaijan, Lenkoraniella nigricoxa, new species, new genus, new synonymy Introduction The mountainous region Talysh is the south-eastern part of Azerbaijan between 38°24' and 39°22' N and 47°58' and 48°52' E, with total area 5370 km2. It adjoins on the North with Mugan Steppe, on the East - with Caspian Sea and on the South and West it forms the border with Iran. Before our researches started only 12 harvestmen species were known from Talysh. The data of Morin (1937) repeated by Bogachev (1951): Acropsopilio talischensis Morin, Opilio coxipunctus (Sorensen), O. ejuncidus Thorell, O. lepidus L. Koch, O. consputus (Simon), O. pallens (Kulczyński), Zacheus bispinifrons Roewer, being either doubtful or simply incredible and the revision of the Morin’s material is impossible - there is nothing left (either destroyed before or during the War).

  • Die Weberknechte Österreichs (Arachnida, Opiliones)
    ZOBODAT - www.zobodat.at Zoologisch-Botanische Datenbank/Zoological-Botanical Database Digitale Literatur/Digital Literature Zeitschrift/Journal: Denisia Jahr/Year: 2004 Band/Volume: 0012 Autor(en)/Author(s): Komposch Christian, Gruber Jürgen Artikel/Article: Die Weberknechte Österreichs (Arachnida, Opiliones). 485-534 © Biologiezentrum Linz/Austria; download unter www.biologiezentrum.at Die Weberknechte Österreichs (Arachnida, Opiliones) Ch. KOMPOSCH & J. GRUBER Abstract: Harvestmen of Austria (Arachnida, Opiliones). 61 harvestman species belonging to 7 fam- ilies occur in Austria. The federal states of Austria show a quite different investigation intensity; the to- tal number of species ranges from 25 (Burgenland) to 53 (Carinthia). A short survey of the opiliono- logical history of research starts with SCHRANK in 1781. A characterisation of all species comprises syn- onyms, areal, horizontal and vertical distribution in Austria, ecological behaviour and aspects of nature conservation. Several synonyms could be clarified, and taxonomical and bionomical problems are de- scribed. German names are mentioned for all taxa for the first time (in cooperation with Jochen MARTENS); most species are illustrated by means of colour photos. Endemic species occurring within the national territory of Austria are Nemastoma schueüeri, N. (biden- uuum) relictum and Leiobunum subalpinum. Endemic species with small areals within the (predominant- ly) Eastern Alps are Mitostoma alpinum, Trogulus cisalpinus, hchyropsalis carli, 1. hadiji, I. helvetica, I. kol- lari, Megabunus armatus, M. lessera and Leiobunum roseum; mainly higher alpine species with an areal restricted to the Alps are Paranemaswma bicuspidatum, Dicranopalpus gasteinensis, Cyas annulatus and Mitopus glacialis. Sixteen valid taxa have their locus typicus in Austria: Histricostoma denapalpe, Astrobunus hellen (both surroundings of Innsbruck: Husslhof/Höttinger Berg, Tyrol), Holoscotolemon unicolor (Lienz, Eastern Ty- rol), Nemastoma (bidentatum) relictum (Kleinarltal: Tappenkarsee, Salzburg), N.
