    Arachnologische Mitteilungen / Arachnology Letters 60: 12-18 Karlsruhe, September 2020 Two new cave-dwelling spider species from the Moroccan High Atlas (Araneae: Liocranidae, Theridiidae) Sylvain Lecigne, Josiane Lips, Soumia Moutaouakil & Pierre Oger doi: 10.30963/aramit6002 Abstract. During a scientific internship in a mountainous area near Agadir, several caves were prospected; the sampled material includ- ed several spider species. Morphological and taxonomical analysis revealed two new species to science: an anophthalmic troglobiont species, Agraecina agadirensis spec. nov. (description based on three females) and a new member of the genus Steatoda in the Mediter- ranean region, Steatoda ifricola spec. nov. (description based on both sexes). Diagnoses, drawings and photos are presented. Keywords: Agadir, comb-footed spiders, Ida Outanane Massif, spiny-legged sac spiders, taxonomy, troglobiont species Zusammenfassung. Zwei neue höhlenbewohnenden Spinnenarten aus dem marokkanischem Hohen Atlas (Araneae: Liocrani- dae, Theridiidae). Während eines wissenschaftlichen Praktikums im Gebirge nah Agadir wurden mehrere Höhlen besucht. Das dort gesammelte Material enthielt mehrere Spinnenarten. Die morphologische und taxonomische Untersuchung erbrachte zwei neue Arten für die Wissenschaft: eine augenlose troglobionte Art, Agraecina agadirensis spec. nov.

From Essaouira to Agadir, expatriates lived out of vans and/or inside the houses of the Amazigh villagers. Many of these expatriates made Morocco their home from upwards of ten to fifteen years, even giving birth to children in these rural villages. The American and Europeans shared with the locals and vice versa, bartering food, skills, athletics, language, and friendship. Naturally, as surfing became a popular pastime among hippies in the United States in the 1960s, the expatriates began to bring early models of surfboards and wetsuits to the villages of Taghazout Bay in 1975.

  • Morocco Instructor Course Useful Information
    MOROCCO INSTRUCTOR COURSE USEFUL INFORMATION Taghazout Taghazout is a small fishing village in the south of Morocco. During the 60’s there were prolific numbers of hippies from Europe and North America (Jimi Hendrix would apparently frequent in the 60’s) and surfers started arriving in the 1980’s searching for uncrowded waves. Despite the influx of surf tourism, Taghazout has still managed to keep its small town feel. There are a handful of restaurants scattered along the main street and some beautifully located cafes to enjoy a coffee or freshly squeezed orange juice on the sea front. There are plenty of little grocery shops to buy supplies all within walking distance of your apartments. The Local Area As you will probably have guessed, Taghazout and the local area is renowned for its waves. Within a 15 minute drive there are over 10 amazing point breaks and dozens of beaches which make it the perfect place to learn. If you have a minute look up some of the following spot names online and you will see what we mean: Killers, Anchors, Banana point, Panoramas, Boilers, Tamri, Immesouane, Tifnit, Desert point, Crocadiles, Mysteries, La Source.... Page 1 ACCOMMODATION The Surf Berbere Surf Camp During the 12 week course you will either stay in the surf camp on Hash Point, or in a hotel 50 yards behind the surf camp.
