A velvet worm (Peripatus sp., Peripatidae) was observed and photographed while feeding on a theraphosid spider, Hapalopus butantan (Pe´rez-Miles, 1998). The present note is the first report of an onychophoran feeding on ‘‘giant’’ spider. Keywords: Prey behavior, velvet worm, spider Onychophorans, or velvet worms, are organisms whose behavior on the floor forests (pers. obs.). Onychophorans are capable of preying remains poorly understood due to their cryptic lifestyle (New 1995) on animals their own size, although the quantity of glue used in an attack and by the fact they are rare in the Neotropics (Mcglynn & Kelley increases up to about 80% of the total capacity for larger prey (Read & 1999). Consequently reports on hitherto unknown aspects of the Hughes 1987). It may be that encounters with larger prey items, such as biology and life history of onychophorans are urgently needed. that observed by us, are more common than previously supposed. Onychophorans are almost all carnivores that prey on small invertebrates such as snails, isopods, earth worms, termites, and other ACKNOWLEDGMENTS small insects (Hamer et al. 1997).

  • The Early Amber Caught the Wormª a 100 Million-Year-Old Onychophoran Reveals Past Migrations
    The early amber caught the wormª A 100 million-year-old onychophoran reveals past migrations The split of the supercontinent Pangaea into southern Gondwana and northern Laurasia divided the fauna of these two regions. Therefore, the present-day occurrence of supposedly Gondwanan organisms in Laurasian-derived regions remains a puzzle of palaeobiogeographical history. We studied the oldest amber-embedded species of velvet worms (Onychophora) in order to illuminate the colonisation of Southeast Asia by Gondwanan lineages of these animals. Our results indicate that an early Eurogondwanan migration is the most likely scenario for Onychophora, while an ‘Out-of-India’ colonisation of Southeast Asia would instead be incompatible with the age of the amber fossil studied. This suggests a recent colonisation of India by onychophorans and refutes their Gondwanan relict status in this region. Burmese amber from Myanmar is known not only for its hypothesis recently named the Eurogondwana model [4]. physical beauty but also for preserving one of the richest Alternatively, since onychophorans are poor dispersers, it palaeobiota in the world, being arguably the most relevant was proposed that the Indian subcontinent acted as a raft fossil resin for studying terrestrial diversity during the mid- during its northward drift and brought Gondwanan species of Cretaceous period, approximately 100 million years ago [1].

Box 84 Lincoln University [email protected] Prepared for: Lake Rotokare Scenic Reserve Trust October 2008 Lake Rotokare Scenic Reserve Invertebrate Ecological Restoration Proposal 1. Introduction Rotokare Scenic Reserve is situated 12 km east of Eltham, South Taranaki, and is a popular recreation area for boating, walking and enjoying the scenery. The reserve consists of 230 ha of forested hill country, including a 17.8 ha lake and extensive wetland. Lake Rotokare is within the tribal area of the Ngati Ruanui and Ngati Tupaea people who used the area to collect food. Mature forested areas provide habitat for many birds including the fern bird (Sphenoeacus fulvus) and spotless crake (Porzana tabuensis), while the banded kokopu (Galaxias fasciatus) and eels (Anguilla australis schmidtii and Anguilla dieffenbachii) are found in streams and the lake, and the gold‐striped gecko (Hoplodactylus chrysosireticus) in the flax margins. In 2004 a broad group of users of the reserve established the Lake Rotokare Scenic Reserve Trust with the following mission statements: “To achieve the highest possible standard of pest control/eradication with or without a pest‐proof fence and to achieve a mainland island” “To have due regard for recreational users of Lake Rotokare Scenic Reserve” The Trust has raised funds and erected a predator exclusion fence around the 8.4 km reserve perimeter.

They capture prey with an adhesive net that is formed in a fraction of a second. The first naturalist to formally describe them was Lansdown Guilding (1797-1831), a British priest from the Caribbean island of Saint Vincent. His life is as little known as the history of the field he initiated, Onychophorology. This is the first general history of Onychophorology, which has been divided into half-century periods. The beginning, 1826-1879, was characterized by studies from former students of famous naturalists like Cuvier and von Baer. This generation included Milne-Edwards and Blanchard, and studies were done mostly in France, Britain, and Germany. In the 1880-1929 period, research was concentrated on anatomy, behavior, biogeography, and ecology; and it is in this period when Bouvier published his mammoth monograph.

  • Care and Husbandry of Epiperipatus Barbadensis
    Care and Husbandry of Epiperipatus barbadensis Velvet Worms, or Peripatus, belong to the phylum Onychophora and are fascinating panarthropods. They are found throughout tropical and temperate areas of Asia, Africa, Australia, the Americas, and the Caribbean. Their unique appearance, hunting behaviors, and social structure create an appealing challenge for experienced hobbyists. And with the proper environmental conditions and care velvet worms will thrive and become an interesting addition to any menagerie. Epiperipatus barbadensis is a species with moderately difficult husbandry for the average invertebrate keeper due to its unique care requirements, but in comparison to other onychophora they are great beginner velvet worm. For those that have kept poison dart frogs, much of the basic care and the optional advanced terrarium setup is quite similar; they like it warm, humid, and a balanced environment. Velvet worms do great in groups as many species throughout the world thrive in familial units dominated by adult females. Social species share the same hiding places, take care of their young, and share large prey items with any nearby kin after subduing the prey with a jet of goo. The more of these elusive creatures one has the more hunting and social behavior one will witness. An adult Epiperipatus barbadensis female Trade Name(s) Known only as Epiperipatus barbadensis this velvet worm is the first tropical species to successfully enter the hobby. With the Latin nomenclature of Onychophora still remaining relatively unfamiliar the common name ‘Barbados Brown Velvet Worm’ may be utilized. This could help differentiate between this variety and the periodically available New Zealand species (Peripatoides spp.).

  • Phylum Onychophora
    Lab exercise 6: Arthropoda General Zoology Laborarory . Matt Nelson phylum onychophora Velvet worms Once considered to represent a transitional form between annelids and arthropods, the Onychophora (velvet worms) are now generally considered to be sister to the Arthropoda, and are included in chordata the clade Panarthropoda. They are no hemichordata longer considered to be closely related to echinodermata the Annelida. Molecular evidence strongly deuterostomia supports the clade Panarthropoda, platyhelminthes indicating that those characteristics which the velvet worms share with segmented rotifera worms (e.g. unjointed limbs and acanthocephala metanephridia) must be plesiomorphies. lophotrochozoa nemertea mollusca Onychophorans share many annelida synapomorphies with arthropods. Like arthropods, velvet worms possess a chitinous bilateria protostomia exoskeleton that necessitates molting. The nemata ecdysozoa also possess a tracheal system similar to that nematomorpha of insects and myriapods. Onychophorans panarthropoda have an open circulatory system with tardigrada hemocoels and a ventral heart. As in arthropoda arthropods, the fluid-filled hemocoel is the onychophora main body cavity. However, unlike the arthropods, the hemocoel of onychophorans is used as a hydrostatic acoela skeleton. Onychophorans feed mostly on small invertebrates such as insects. These prey items are captured using a special “slime” which is secreted from large slime glands inside the body and expelled through two oral papillae on either side of the mouth. This slime is protein based, sticking to the cuticle of insects, but not to the cuticle of the velvet worm itself. Secreted as a liquid, the slime quickly becomes solid when exposed to air. Once a prey item is captured, an onychophoran feeds much like a spider.

Entomologie, Martin-Luther-King Pfalz 3, D-2000 Hamburg 13 Abstract: What is a modern monograph? The problem is tackled on the basis of a discussion of the compli- cated taxonomy of Onychophora. At first glance the phylum presents a very uniform phenotype, which led to the popular taxonomic use of the generic name "Peripatus" for all representatives of the group. The first description of an onychophoran, as an "aberrant mollusc", was published in 1826 by GUILDING: To date, about 100 species have been described, and Australian colleagues (BRISCOE & TAIT, in prep.), using al- lozyme electrophoretic techniques, have discovered large numbers of genetically isolated populations of as yet un- described Peripatopsidae. The taxonomic hislory is reviewed in brief. Following the principles of SIMPSON, MAYR, HENNIG and others, selected taxonomic characters are discussed and evaluated. Questions arise such as: how can the pioneer classification (sensu SEDGWICK, POCOCK, and BOUVIER) be improved? New approaches towards a modern monographic account are considered, including the use of SEM and TEM and biochemical methods.
