DISTINGUISHING THE JUMPING SPIDERS ERIS MILITARIS AND ERIS FLA VA IN NORTH AMERICA (ARANEAE: SALTICIDAE)* BY WAYNE MADDISON Museum of Comparative Zoology, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138 The jumping spiders now identified as Eris marginata are among the most frequently encountered in North America, for they are common on trees, shrubs and herbs throughout much of the continent. However, two species have been confused under this name. One is an abundant transamerican species whose proper name is Eris militaris; the other is Eris flava, widely distributed in eastern North America though common only in the southeast. In this paper I describe how they may be distinguished. The abbrevia- tion MCZ refers to the Museum of Comparative Zoology; ZMB to the Zoologisches Museum, Humboldt-Universittt zu Berlin.

Spiders of the Hawaiian Islands: Catalog and Bibliography1
Pacific Insects 6 (4) : 665-687 December 30, 1964 SPIDERS OF THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS: CATALOG AND BIBLIOGRAPHY1 By Theodore W. Suman BISHOP MUSEUM, HONOLULU, HAWAII Abstract: This paper contains a systematic list of species, and the literature references, of the spiders occurring in the Hawaiian Islands. The species total 149 of which 17 are record ed here for the first time. This paper lists the records and literature of the spiders in the Hawaiian Islands. The islands included are Kure, Midway, Laysan, French Frigate Shoal, Kauai, Oahu, Molokai, Lanai, Maui and Hawaii. The only major work dealing with the spiders in the Hawaiian Is. was published 60 years ago in " Fauna Hawaiiensis " by Simon (1900 & 1904). All of the endemic spiders known today, except Pseudanapis aloha Forster, are described in that work which also in cludes a listing of several introduced species. The spider collection available to Simon re presented only a small part of the entire Hawaiian fauna. In all probability, the endemic species are only partly known. Since the appearance of Simon's work, there have been many new records and lists of introduced spiders. The known Hawaiian spider fauna now totals 149 species and 4 subspecies belonging to 21 families and 66 genera. Of this total, 82 species (5596) are believed to be endemic and belong to 10 families and 27 genera including 7 endemic genera. The introduced spe cies total 65 (44^). Two unidentified species placed in indigenous genera comprise the remaining \%. Seventeen species are recorded here for the first time. In the catalog section of this paper, families, genera and species are listed alphabetical ly for convenience. -

Foraminifera of Hawaii: Literature Survey THOMAS A. BURCH & BEATRICE L.

The entire list is planned to be published as a Bishop Museum Technical Report. This list also includes other names that have been applied to Hawaiian foraminiferans.

ANTONIO GALÁN-SÁNCHEZ1 & F. JAVIER SALGUEIRO- SEPÚLVEDA1 1Laboratorio de Aracnología, Facultad de Ciencias, Departamento de Biología Comparada, Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México, Circuito Exterior s/n, Colonia Copilco el Bajo. C. P. 04510. Del. Coyoacán, Ciudad de México, México. E-mail: [email protected] 2Corresponding author Abstract Spider community inventories have relatively well-established standardized collecting protocols. Such protocols set rules for the orderly acquisition of samples to estimate community parameters and to establish comparisons between areas. These methods have been tested worldwide, providing useful data for inventory planning and optimal sampling allocation efforts. The taxonomic counterpart of biodiversity inventories has received considerably less attention. Species lists and their relative abundances are the only link between the community parameters resulting from a biotic inventory and the biology of the species that live there. However, this connection is lost or speculative at best for species only partially identified (e. g., to genus but not to species). This link is particularly important for diverse tropical regions were many taxa are undescribed or little known such as spiders. One approach to this problem has been the development of biodiversity inventory websites that document the morphology of the species with digital images organized as standard views. -
The Jumping Spiders (Araneae: Salticidae) of the Virginia Peninsula1
Vol. 98, No. 5, November & December 1987 235 THE JUMPING SPIDERS (ARANEAE: SALTICIDAE) OF THE VIRGINIA PENINSULA 1 2 C.L. Stietenroth, N.V. Horner ABSTRACT: Thirty species representing 1 8 genera of Salticidae are recorded from the Virginia Peninsula. Habitat and natural history information for each species is presented. Some salticids on the peninsula occupy diverse habitats while other species appear to confine themselves to more restricted environments. The most abundant salticid was Hentzia palmarum. Metaphi- dippus galathea and Platycryptus undatus were most widely distributed species. Salticids reported in Virginia for the first time are Phidippus princeps, P. otiosus, Thiodina sylvana, Sitticus fasciger and Zygoballus sexpunctatus. A few studies concerning the spider fauna of Virginia have been published. The earliest record of occurrence was by John Banister between 1678 and 1692 (Ewan and Ewan, 1970). More recently, McCaffrey and Hornsburgh published three studies concerning spiders in apple orchards in central Virginia. Their assessment of spider populations in an unsprayed orchard was published in 1 1 977 followed ( 978) by laboratory feeding studies performed to evaluate potential effects of predaceous spiders on insect residents of apple orchards. Later (1980), a comparison was made between the spider populations in abandoned and commercial orchards; 68 species were identified. Dowd and Kok (1981), and McPherson el al. (1982) considered spider and other arthropod predation on the curculionid beetle, Rhynocyllus sp., in a in 1 soybean cropping system Virginia. Holsinger ( 982) reported on the spider cave-fauna in Burnsville Cove. The efficiency of limb-beating for capturing various spider families in apple orchards is discussed by McCaffrey and Parrella(1984). -

A LIST of the JUMPING SPIDERS of MEXICO. David B. Richman and Bruce Cutler
PECKHAMIA 62.1, 11 October 2008 ISSN 1944-8120 This is a PDF version of PECKHAMIA 2(5): 63-88, December 1988. Pagination of the original document has been retained. 63 A LIST OF THE JUMPING SPIDERS OF MEXICO. David B. Richman and Bruce Cutler The salticids of Mexico are poorly known. Only a few works, such as F. O. Pickard-Cambridge (1901), have dealt with the fauna in any depth and these are considerably out of date. Hoffman (1976) included jumping spiders in her list of the spiders of Mexico, but the list does not contain many species known to occur in Mexico and has some synonyms listed. It is our hope to present a more complete list of Mexican salticids. Without a doubt such a work is preliminary and as more species are examined using modern methods a more complete picture of this varied fauna will emerge. The total of 200 species indicates more a lack of study than a sparse fauna. We would be surprised if the salticid fauna of Chiapas, for example, was not larger than for all of the United States. Unfortunately, much of the tropical forest may disappear before this fauna is fully known. The following list follows the general format of our earlier (1978) work on the salticid fauna of the United States and Canada. We have not prepared a key to genera, at least in part because of the obvious incompleteness of the list. We hope, however, that this list will stimulate further work on the Mexican salticid fauna.
