Inhalt Teil 1.Pmd BEITR. ARANEOL., 3 (2004) Part II: THE COLOURED PLATES Material: The inclusions are preserved in Baltic amber (BB) if not otherwise noted. They are kept in numerous institutions and private collections, see the introduction and the descriptions of the inclusions. CJW = collection of J. WUNDERLICH, IMGPG = Institute and Museum of Geology and Palae- ontology of the Georg-August-University Göttingen, GPIUH = Geological- Palaeontological Institute of the University Hamburg, MZ = Muzeum Ziemi in Warsaw, PIHUB = Palaeontological Institute of the Humboldt University Berlin, SMF = Senckenberg-Museum Frankfurt a. M. Most photos were taken by myself, more than 200 by H. J. MÜLLENMEISTER, some by other friends, see above (close to the introduction). I used a microscope („binocular“) from LEITZ with a magnification up to 150x, a lighting system from SCHOTT, a camera from MINOLTA (SRT101) and films from KODAK (Ektachrome ERP 64, daylight). All the photos were digitalized, most were scanned by KODAK, some were modified later, e.g., to increase the contrast of the inclusions. For the same reason some pieces were photographed in polarized light or with blue paper; so the colours of these pieces are not original. To provide a comprehensive documentation I occasionally also took photos from less well or even badly preserved inclusions, which were covered by a white emulsion, were darkened by heating or partly hidden by fissures of the amber. I focussed on the most important structures of the inclusions. Parts of the German text, which are translated from English, are occasionally shortened and modified. Families Barychelidae, Caponiidae, Palpimanidae, Theridiidae, Ctenidae, Anyphaenidae and Salticidae: Lyssomaninae in Dominican amber: See WUNDERLICH (1986). Teil II: DIE FARBTAFELN Material: Sofern nicht anders vermerkt sind die Einschlüsse in Baltischem Bernstein (BB) konserviert. Sie werden in verschiedenen Instituten und privaten Sammlungen aufbewahrt (siehe oben und die Beschreibungen der Einschlüsse), z.B. in der Sammlung J. WUNDERLICH (CJW). Die meisten Fotos habe ich selbst angefertigt, mehr als 200 stammen von H. J. MÜLLENMEISTER, einige von weiteren Freunden, siehe bei der Einleitung. 331 Benutzt habe ich ein Binokular von LEITZ mit einer Vergrößerung bis 150- fach, eine Kaltlicht-Punktleuchte von SCHOTT, einen Fotoapparat (Spiegelreflex) von MINOLTA (SRT 101) und Filme von KODAK (Ektachrome ERP 64, Tageslicht). Alle Farbfotos wurden digitalisiert, die meisten wurden bei KODAK gescannt, einige wurden nachbearbeitet, z. B. um den Kontrast der Einschlüsse zu erhöhen. Aus demselben Grund wurden einige Stücke in polarisiertem Licht oder über blauem Papier fotografiert; die Farben dieser Stücke sind daher nicht die originalen. Um eine möglichst umfassende Dokumentation zu geben, habe ich gelegentlich auch solche Einschlüsse fotografiert, die mäßig oder sogar schlecht erhalten sind, von einer weißen Emulsion bedeckt, durch Erhitzen verdunkelt oder teilweise durch Risse im Bernstein verdeckt sind. Ich habe darauf geachtet, daß die wichtigsten Strukturen der Einschlüsse scharf abgebildet wurden. Der ins Deutsche übersetzte Text wurde gelegentlich leicht gekürzt und verändert. Sequence of the photos: THE FOSSIL SPIDERS (1-430) - spiders in copal from Madagascar (431-440) - imitations and fakes (441-447) - regenerated legs (448-451) - moulting and exuviae (452-472) - decomposition; injuries and healing processes (473-494) - egg sacs (495-523) - a retreat (524-525) - threads and webs; attachment discs and draglines (526-573) - excrements (574-582) - phoresy (583-588) - parasites (589-605) - other enemies, cannibalism (606-620) - prey (621-685) - other fossil arachnids than spiders (686-696). Reihenfolge der Fotos: DIE FOSSILEN SPINNEN (1-430) - Spinnen in Kopal von Madagskar (431-440) - Imitationen und Fälschungen (441-447) - regenerierte Beine (448-451) - Häutung und Exuvien (452-472) - Zersetzung; Verletzungen und Heilungsvorgänge (473-494) - Eier-Kokons (495-523) - ein Versteck (524-525) - Spinnfäden und Netze; Haftpunkte und Wegfäden (526-573) - Exkremente (574-582) - Phoresie (583-588) - Parasiten (589- 605) - andere Feinde, Kannibalismus (606-620) - Beute (621-685) - andere fossile Spinnentiere als Spinnen (686-696). Behind the numbers of the photos the numbers of the slides (in Latin and Arabian) of the author’s collection are noted in brackets. - Hinter den Nummern der Fotos sind die Nummern der zugehörigen Dias (lateinisch und arabisch) der Sammlung des Autors aufgeführt. 332 THE FOSSIL SPIDERS 1. Infraorder Mygalomorpha (Mygalomorphs) About 5% of the arthropods in Baltic amber are spider specimens, almost 5% are members of the Araneomorpha, only less than 0.1% of these are Mygalomorpha. So specimens of this infraorder are only rarely preserved in amber, adult spiders are extremely rare. They are mainly distributed in the tropics and subtropics. Most of these „archaic“ spiders are large(r) animals and possess powerful jaws (chelicerae), which are directed forewards and whose tips of the fangs are not crossed (photo 5). In Baltic amber exuviae of the family Ctenizidae are more likely to be found than juvenile or adult spiders; see the paper on the Mygalomorpha in this volume. DIE FOSSILEN SPINNEN 1. Zwischenordnung Längskieferspinnen (Mygalomorpha) (Vergl. unten: 2. Zwischenordnung, die Querkieferspinnen) Etwa 5% der Gliederfüßer im Baltischen Bernstein sind Spinnen, fast alle sind Querkiefers- pinnen, weniger als 0.1% von diesen sind Exemplare der Längskieferspinnen. Vertreter dieser Zwischenordnung sind im Bernstein somit nur selten erhalten, geschlechts- reife Spinnen sind extrem selten. Sie sind überwiegend in den Tropen und Subtropen ver- breitet. Die meisten dieser urtümlichen Spinnen sind größere oder große Tiere und besit- zen mächtig entwickelte Kiefer (Cheliceren), die nach vorn gerichtet sind und deren Spitzen der Gift-Klauen sich nicht überkreuzen (Foto 5). Im Baltischen Bernstein finden wir am ehesten Häutungsreste (Exuvien) der Familie Falltürspinnen; siehe die Arbeit über die Längs- kieferspinnen in diesem Band. Family Ctenizidae (Trapdoor Spiders) Trapdoor Spiders dig a tube in the earth which they cover with silk and whose opening can be closed by a lid. Their chelicerae bear stout anterior spines, a rastellum. There are few genera in Southern Europe. In Baltic amber I found members of the genus Ummidia THORELL 1875, in which the tibia of the third pair of the legs bears a dorsal depression; females, juveniles and most exuviae have spiny first and second legs (photo 6), which are absent in the males. Familie Falltürspinnen (Ctenizidae) Falltürspinnen graben eine Erdröhre, die sie mit Spinnseide auskleiden und deren Öffnung von einem Deckel verschlossen werden kann. Vorn tragen ihre Kiefer kräftige Stacheln 333 eines „Rastellums“. In Süd-Europa kommen verschiedene Gattungen vor. Im Baltischen Bernstein fand ich Vertreter der Gattung Ummidia, bei der die Tibia des dritten Beinpaares oben eine Vertiefung trägt; bei den Weibchen, den Jungspinnen und den meisten Häu- tungsresten - nicht aber bei den Männchen - tragen die Beine der ersten beiden Paare starke Stacheln (Foto 6).

B. lediglich das Bein einer Spinne. Weitere Exemplare bei der ersten Beschreibung einer Art heißen Paratypen, meh- rere gleichrangige Exemplare werden Syntypen genannt).

The sampling work in Awka was the second spider study in south - east and was done once a month for twelve months. A total of 238 species, 140 genera in 34 families were recorded from Nigeria in the present study. This is 2.4 % of the world spiders from 19 locations. No spider related research has ever taken place in the wh ole of north - west zone, while just a single species, Hersilia caudata recorded from the north - east zone. Salticidae was the most dominant family representing 35 .0 % of the total species in Nigeria. It is also the most distributed alongside Araneidae and Sp arassidae. They were found in four of the six zones of the country. Out of the 15 families that were exclusive to different zones, Nesticidae, Oxyopidae and Gnaphosidae were from Awka.
