DOBRORUKA Abstract: Pseudicius epiblemoides (Araneae: Salticidae) in Central Europe.
Seven species are newly described: Anansus kamwai sp. The known geological age of Pholcidae is extended by approximately 5-10 Ma from that of its previous oldest occurrence in Baltic amber. Palabras clave: Araneae, Pholcidae, Psilochorus simoni, primera cita, Península Ibéri-ca, España, León.
nov. Additional new records are given for 16 previously described species, including 17 new country records. West Africa is here defined as the area south of 17°N and west of 5°E, including mainly the Upper Guinean subregion of the Guineo-Congolian center of endemism. Triaeris stenaspis did not build webs for prey capture, but instead used the grasp-and-hold tactic. Smeringopina is largely restricted to the tropical forests of West and Central Africa. Both specimens represent the oldest known fossils of their respective families. The female of Quamtana kitahurira is newly described. Unfortunately, much of his published work is deeply flawed for various reasons. The ‘Dahomey-Gap’ separates two small western clades (the guineensis species group and two species of the ankasa group) from all other species. Q. sp. Living sympatric with this new taxon were female specimens of Stenochrus portoricensis Chamberlin, 1922 and Zomus bagnallii (Jackson, 1908).This paper summarizes current knowledge about Central African pholcids. While West Africa contains a similar set of genera it is significantly less diverse than Central Africa.
East Africa is defined as the area from 12°S to 5°N and from 28° to 42°E, including all of Uganda, Kenya, Burundi, Rwanda, and Tanzania. 08-09-2019.
The present project aims to unravel the evolution of these enigmatic spiders in a large collaborative effort. nov., Leptopholcus kintampo sp. – Arachnologische Mitteilungen 47:49-The daddy longlegs spider subfamily Ninetinae is composed of currently no more than 31 described species.
: Araneae). All rights reserved.B. Five species are newly described: Anansus atewa sp. Large springtails defended themselves by saltation with the spiders still attached to their backs. Additional new records are given for 21 previously described species.This paper summarizes current knowledge about West African pholcids. nov., P. rawiriae sp. nov.; S. maathaiae sp.
nov.; Quamtana nyahururu sp. Distribution update: 26-08-2020 - The second is more widely distributed in southern and eastern South Africa, and reaches as far north as Cameroon, Congo (Democratic Republic) and Uganda; it is assigned generic status (Quamtana gen. nov.), and includes two species transferred from Pholcus[Q. leptopholcica (Strand), Q. ciliata (Lawrence)] as well as 23 new species. Our study supports the hypothesis that T. stenaspis is a specialized predator of springtails, being effective in the capture of this type of prey.The spitting spider Scytodes fusca Walckenaer, 1837 is recorded for the first time in Central Europe from both Germany and Slovakia.
However, their exact phylogenetic position could not be resolved in a Sanger-based six-gene analysis; only a single species has been studied with respect to sperm morphology; all we know about Ninetinae biology comes from anecdotal field observations and label data.
