Abstract:

(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) The dietary composition of the Black-bearded Tomb Bat Taphozous melanopogon Temminck, 1841 (Chiroptera: Emballonuridae) from two different habitats was analyzed following faecal pellet analysis method. Representatives of 11 insect orders and spiders (Araneidae) contributed to the diet. Forest bats fed on 1-9 insect orders and araneids indicating opportunistic feeding behaviour, while the semi-urban bats fed on 3-8 insect orders and araneids indicating selective feeding behaviour. Although both the forest bats and semi-urban bats fed on the same spectrum of insect prey they showed differential use of them. Forest bats fed predominately on Coleoptera, Homoptera, Lepidoptera, Hemiptera, Orthoptera, Odonata and Araneidae, while the semi-urban bats preferred Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Diptera, Orthoptera, Odonata, Hemiptera, Araneidae and Homoptera. Variation in terms of consumption of a particular kind of insect prey between the sexes was evident only among the semi urban bats only with respect to the most significant prey items coleopterans, lepidopterans and dipterans.

Full text

Abstract:

AbstractTrypoxylon (Trypargilum) tridentatum tridentatum Packard (Hymenoptera: Crabronidae) is a spider-hunting wasp in mesic and xeric habitats in the arid Baja California peninsula of Mexico. Spider (Araneae) prey were collected every 2 weeks from wasp trap nests. Individuals of the family Araneidae were the most abundant prey (60.9%), followed by Theridiidae and Mimetidae. Dictynidae, Anyphaenidae, Salticidae, Uloboridae, Tetragnathidae, Miturgidae, and Philodromidae were captured only in the mesic habitat. An unidentified species of Eriophora Simon (Araneidae) was the most frequently collected spider in the xeric habitat (29.0%), followed by Theridion submissum Gertsch and Davis (Theridiidae) (24.0%), which was the commonest prey species in the mesic habitat (21.1%), and Metepeira crassipes Chamberlin and Ivie (Araneidae) (16.5%). Nineteen species and three families are newly recorded as prey. The araneids Araneus lineatipes (O.P.-Cambridge) and Kaira alba (Hentz) and the uloborids Philoponella arizonica (Gertsch) and Uloborus segregatus Gertsch are new records for Baja California.

Abstract:

ABSTRACTThe arachnids from the late Eocene Insect Limestone of the Isle of Wight are reviewed. Only spiders (Araneae) have been recorded, of which several dozen are known, mostly juveniles. Nearly all are araneomorphs; the putative mygalomorph Eoatypus woodwardii McCook, 1888 was removed from that infraorder by Selden (2001), but new specimens, yet to be described, could belong in this group. Among the adult specimens, which are thus identifiable to family level, most belong to the argyronetid water-spider Vectaraneus yulei Selden, 2001; some resemble araneids, and a small number can be referred to other families. New morphological information on the holotype of Vectaraneus is presented, and three other specimens are described in more detail here, in Segestriidae, Araneidae and Salticidae. Segestriids are nocturnal sedentary hunters living in tubular retreats in rock or bark crevices. Araneids are the archetypal weavers of orb webs. Salticids are the familiar jumping spiders; the one described here is an ant mimic. Their presence suggests a drier habitat was present somewhere in the source environment for the fossil biota, and they were probably inhabitants of the raised hammocks suggested for the Insect Bed palaeoenvironment.

Abstract:

Spiders are significant predators in terrestrial habitats, with the highest diversity found in tropical ecosystems, but it is also where they are studied least. In this study, we analyzed the effect of seasonality and three environmental variables (precipitation, evaporation, and temperature) in the orb-weaver composition, richness, abundance, dominance, and diversity. In addition, the species turnover between three localities with differences in the vegetation composition and maintenance in the Sierra de Huautla, Morelos, Mexico, were evaluated. The collection methods used included beating vegetation and direct searches conducted over seven hours during daylight, once per month, between April 2013 and March 2014. A total of 17 species from 14 genera were registered. With the records, we compiled the first species inventory of araneids for the three localities, adding eight new species records for the state of Morelos. The predominant species were Neoscona oaxacensis (Keyserling, 1864) and Trichonephila clavipes (Linnaeus, 1767), but over 50% of the species that we recorded corresponded to a single individual. The Araneid community changed between the dry and rainy seasons in all three localities, with each locality responding differently to changes in environmental variables, with most variables maintaining a long-term effect on the spider community.

Abstract:

The Araneidae is a speciose family including web-spinning spiders that are very abundant in various terrestrial ecosystems. Several studies demonstrate that changes in vegetation surrounding rivers, streams and brooks affect the associated araneofauna. The aim of this research was to compare differences found in diversity (abundance and richness), composition and phenology of Araneidae spiders sampled in different habitats in four riparian forest catchments in southern Brazil. Samples were taken from riparian forests in four rivers of Rio Grande do Sul State: Piratini, Camaquã, Sinos and Maquiné rivers, each in a different hydrographic basin. Samples were taken twice seasonally on each basin during two years, sampling the araneofauna of the tree-shrub strata with beating tray. Six transects were employed on each basin, two per habitat: edge with grassland, forest interior and river edge. Araneids totalled 20 genera and 65 species. Comparing riparian forests significant differences are found. Spider abundance differed among riparian forests as well as species richness. Overall, Piratini river riparian forest had the higher abundance and richness for Araneidae; the lower values were in Sinos river forest. The stronger degradation and fragmentation of the riparian forests of Sinos river probably influenced the results, with human disturbance gradients associated negatively to web building. We present data on the diversity of these spiders, which were very abundant in the riparian forest interior and very rich in species in the grassland/riparian forest edge. Species composition also differs among the studied habitats (the above plus river/riparian forest edge). For the most abundant species the phenological pattern across the seasons was also analysed.

Abstract:

Surveys of prey use by Trypoxylon lactitarse Saussure (Hymenoptera: Sphecidae) were conducted in Clemson, SC, by placing trap-nests in four habitat types: a planted loblolly pine stand, a naturally-occurring mixed hardwood forest, an area of mowed grass containing scattered mature oaks, and a mowed pasture. Trypoxylon lactitarse only provisioned trap-nests in the planted pine and mixed hardwood habitats. All recovered trap-nests were found between 1 and 19 July 1991. In the pine habitat, two fully provisioned trap-nests were recovered that contained a total of 91 spiders in the families Araneidae (93.4%), Mimetidae (5.5%), and Tetragnathidae (1.1%). In the mixed hardwood forest, eight fully provisioned trap-nests were recovered, containing a total of 721 spiders in the families Araneidae (97.2%), Philodromidae (2.6%), and Mimetidae (0.1%). In the pine habitat, spiders consisted predominantly of Araneus spp. juveniles (58.2%) and the araneid Eustala cepina (Walckenaer) (28.6%); whereas, in the hardwood habitat E. cepina (81.8%) was the most abundant prey. Although prey use varied between the two habitats, within each habitat contents of individual trap-nests suggests that T. lactitarse exhibits a relatively high degree of prey constancy.

Abstract:

The genus Melychiopharis Simon was originally described in the family Araneidae, placed close to Hypognatha Guérin-Méneville (Simon 1895: 907). Levi (2002) transferred the genus to Theridiidae, based on its unusual morphology, which is extremely different from the araneid body plan. However, Santos et al. (2005) presented evidence suggesting that this genus is closer to araneid genera, like Hypognatha and Testudinaria Taczanowski and, consequently, transferred it back to Araneidae. That study also included a redescription and illustrations of the genus and of its only species, M. cynips Simon, 1895, which is currently known from northern, central and northeastern Brazil.

Abstract:

Although lists of spider species have been compiled for all of Canada’s provinces and territories, the spider fauna of Prince Edward Island (PEI) is poorly known. Based on the efforts of citizen scientists, naturalists, and scientists on PEI and researchers at the Centre for Biodiversity Genomics, we present the first comprehensive list of spider species on the island, increasing the known number from 44 to 198. The Centre for Biodiversity Genomics conducted intensive collection in Prince Edward Island National Park; Nature PEI citizen scientists and naturalists contributed specimens from across the island from several different habitats. This provincial list is dominated by the araneoid families, Linyphiidae, Theridiidae, and Araneidae, with 55, 27, and 22 species, respectively. Several non-native species, such as the theridiid Eurasian False Black Widow Spider (Steatoda bipunctata (L.)) and the araneid Red-sided Sector Spider (Zygiella atrica (C.L. Koch)), have been collected in several locations on the island, suggesting that they are well established. This work highlights the effectiveness of collaboration among citizen scientists, naturalists, and professional researchers to further our knowledge of species diversity and distributions.

Abstract:

Biology of Scelionidae Scelionid wasps are idiobiont endoparasitoids of spider eggs, mainly araneids and teridids, and of insects odonates, orthopterans, mantles, embypterans, hemipterans, neuropterans, coleopterans, dipterans and lepidopterans. Its females have an ovipositor that acts as a hypodermic needle, allowing it to pierce the chorion of the host's egg and lay eggs. The parasitoid larvae consume the host's tissues and thrusts within it, with one adult emerging in solitary species or several adults in gregarious species. The objective of this mini review is to understand the biology, ecology, habitat, geographical distribution, taxonomy, life cycle and phenology of the Scelionidae Family. In this study, quantitative and conceptual aspects were used. To this end, a bibliographic survey of Scelionidae was carried out in the years 1982 to 2021. Only complete articles published in scientific journals and expanded abstracts presented at national and international scientific events, Doctoral Thesis and Master's Dissertation were considered. Data were also obtained from platforms such as: Academia.edu, Frontiers, Qeios, Pubmed, Biological Abstract, Publons, Dialnet, World, Wide Science, Springer, RefSeek, Microsoft Academic, Science and ERIC.

A new monotypic genus in the orb-weaving spider family Araneidae Clerck, 1757 is described from Australia: Abba gen. nov., with Abba transversa (Rainbow, 1912) comb. nov. as the type species. It differs from all other genera in the family by somatic characters, specifically a patch of approximately five long spines on the prolateral surface of the first leg in males and an abdominal colouration with a pair of two central spots dorsally on a creamy-white surface. Specimens of A. transversa comb. nov. have been collected in Queensland and New South Wales, where the species is largely summer-mature. We also provide a genus level summary of all Australian Araneidae, currently consisting of 230 described species and eight subspecies in 46 genera.

Abstract:

(1) Background: Scorpions (Arthropoda: Arachnida) represent a diverse group of invertebrates, accounting for a significant proportion of earth’s predators and ecosystems’ modulators. Surviving mostly in hardly reachable nests, and representing key hazards to human health, they attracted major interest for characterizing their eco-, morpho-, and genotypes. (2) Methods: Four scorpion species were collected from the New Valley governorate in Upper Egypt, where a high level of scorpionism and related neurological symptoms are found, that were Leiurus quinquestriatus, Androctonus amoreuxi, Orthochirus innesi, Buthacus leptochelys. They were DNA barcoded, genetically and phylogenetically analyzed through PCR amplification and sequencing of the mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit 1 (COI) gene hypervariable 5′ region. (3) Results: New, morphologically authenticated scorpion barcodes could be added to the barcoding databases. However, several discrepancies and barcode database inadequacies could be revealed. Moreover, taxon-specific patterns for nitrogenous bases’ distribution could be identified, resulting in a significantly high percentage of COI barcode guanine in scorpionids, in comparison to araneids and opilions. (4) Conclusions: For a group of animals where both cryptic speciation and a high risk of human envenomation are evident, the findings of the current study strongly recommend continuous and comprehensive research efforts dealing with morphogenetic authentication for different species of scorpions.

Abstract:

There were several differences between invertebrate fauna collected from 15 cm deep cores taken from previously cultivated soil (now in grass) and fauna of a similar Fox loamy sand series in a nearby woodlot at Delhi, Ontario (42°51′ N, 80°30′W). Soil invertebrate populations in the grassy field were less dense (931 × 103 vs. 1853 × 103 animals/m2) and less diverse, had less than half of the biomass (1.2 vs. 2.9 g dry wt./m2), and exhibited little significant decrease in invertebrate densities with increasing soil depth compared with woodlot soil cores; woodlot soils exhibited significant decreases in invertebrate densities with increasing soil depth. The litter layer (LFH) of the woodlot provided the highest invertebrate densities and biomasses of any soil horizon tested over the 5-month sampling period. Percent abundances at both sites for most taxa were relatively similar; nematodes, protozoans, and mites were most abundant and earthworms, least abundant. The category "other arthropods" (including hexapods, myriapods, and araneids) was the largest contributor at both sites when taxa were ranked according to biomass. Earthworms were virtually nonexistent in the grassy field and were represented by only two species, Dendrobaena octaedra (Savigny) (which was dominant in both abundance and biomass) and Aporrectodea tuberculata (Eisen), in woodlot soil. Woodlot faunal densities and biomasses for most taxa were similar to comparable Eurasian sites of similar climate and vegetation.

Abstract:

In this paper, we provide additional data on the orb-weaver spider fauna (Araneae: Araneidae) of Kosovo. Three species are reported for the first time from this country: <em>Araneus grossus</em> (C.L. Koch, 1844), <em>Argiope lobata</em> (Pallas, 1772) and <em>Cyclosa oculata </em>(Walckenaer, 1802). In consideration of the findings and the updated checklist of Araneidae in this study, the documented number of spider species in Kosovo has now increased to 251. Given that the spider fauna of Kosovo is still not fully explored, our study emphasizes the necessity of ongoing exploration to better comprehend the diversity of spider species within the region.

Abstract:

A world-wide revision of Charletonia Oudemans, 1910 (Acarina : Erythraeidae) is given, based on larvae, protonymphs and deutonymphs . Revised definitions are given for the larva and adult / deutonymph instars . The genus now includes some 50 species, as larvae, known from all continents except Antarctica . About 22 further species, as adults, have been described in the genus Sphaerolophus Berlese, 1910, including three placed in the subgenus Cavannea Berlese, 1910 . Seven new species are described (larvae): C. striaticeps (on Orthoptera, Acrididae), C. ishiii (Orthoptera, Tettigoniidae), C. enghoffi (Phalangida, Phalangiidae), C. naivashae (Acarina, Erythraeidae), C. nishidai (Acrididae), C. philometra (Araneida, Philodromidae) and C. wrighti (Lepidoptera, Lycaenidae). Redescriptions are given of the following Asian species: C. shiroyama Yaita. Kato & Toriyama, and C. okinawaensis (Kitahara & Takara). Protonymphs and deutonymphs, from experimental rearings, are described of C. oudemansi Southcott, C. ishiii and C. nishidai. New distributional records of the following species (as larvae) are given: C. banski Southcott, C. barbata Southcott, C. buforania (Womersley), C. feideri Southcott, C. keyi Southcott, C. oudemansi, C. perthensis (Womersley), C. striaticeps, C. shiroyama, C. vitzthumi Southcott, C. okinawaensis, C. shiroyama, C. cardinalis (C.

Two new specific synonymies are proposed for larvae: C. domrowi Southcott = C. shiroyama Yaita et al., C. grandjeani Southcott = C. barbata Southcott. Revised generic name-placings are proposed for two Australian adults: Sphaerolophus goliathus Berlese = Charletonia goliatha (Berlese), comb. nov.; Sphaerolophus westraliense Womersley = C. westraliensis (Womersley), comb. nov. Keys are given for the larvae (43 species), protonymphs (5) and deutonymphs (5). Larval Charletonia have now been recorded from the following host arachnids and insects: Arachnida: Araneida (Araneidae, Philodromidae, Theridiidae and undetermined), Phalangida (Gagrellidae, Opilionidae, Phalangiidae), Acarina (Erythraeidae, Trombidiidae sens. lat.); Insecta: Odonata (Libellulidae and undetermined Anisoptera), Mantodea (Mantidae), Orthoptera (Acrididae, Tetrigidae, Tettigoniidae), Phasmatodea (Phasmatidae), Hemiptera-Hornoptera (Cercopidae, Delphacidae, Psyllidae), Hemiptera-Heteroptera (Lygaeidae, Miridae and undetermined), Coleoptera (Curculionidae, Melyridae, Tenebrionidae), Diptera (Bombyliidae, Dolichopodidae, Tabanidae, Tachinidae), Lepidoptera (Anthelidae, Geometridae, Lycaenidae, Noctuidae, Notodontidae, Pyralidae, Thaumetopoeidae), Hymenoptera (Braconidae).

Full text

Abstract:

The new species Araneus bonali Morano, sp. n. (Araneae, Araneidae) collected in central and western Spain is described and illustrated. Its novel status is confirmed after a thorough revision of the literature and museum material from the Mediterranean Basin. The taxonomy of Araneus is complicated, but both morphological and molecular data supported the genus membership of Araneus bonali Morano, sp. n. Additionally, the species uniqueness was confirmed by sequencing the barcode gene cytochrome oxidase I from the new species and comparing it with the barcodes available for species of Araneus. A molecular phylogeny, based on nuclear and mitochondrial genes, retrieved a clade with a moderate support that grouped Araneus diadematus Clerck, 1757 with another eleven species, but neither included Araneus bonali sp. n. nor Araneus angulatus Clerck, 1757, although definitive conclusions about the relationships among Araneus species need more markers examined and a broader taxonomic coverage. The new species was collected on isolated holm oaks and forest patches within agricultural landscapes. Adults were mostly trapped on tree trunks, where their lichen-like colours favour mimicry, while juveniles were collected on tree branches. Specimens were never found either in ground traps or grass samples. This species overwinters as egg, juveniles appear in early spring, but reproduction does not take place until late summer-early autumn. Araneus bonali Morano, sp. n. was found in the same locality from where another new spider species was described. Nature management policies should thus preserve isolated trees as key refuges for forest arthropods in agricultural landscapes, as they may be hosting more unnoticed new species. After including Araneus bonali Morano, sp. n. and removing doubtful records and synonymies, the list of Araneus species in the Iberian Peninsula numbers eight.

Abstract:

As part of a current revision of the Australasian and Pacific orb-weaving spider fauna (family Araneidae Clerck, 1757), a number new combinations are proposed in the genera Acroaspis Karsch, 1878 (3 species), Carepalxis L. Koch, 1872 (1 species), Cyclosa Menge, 1866 (5 species), and Neoscona Simon, 1864 (7 species): Acroaspis lancearia (Keyserling, 1887), comb. n., A. mamillana (Keyserling, 1887), comb. n., A. scutifer (Keyserling, 1886), comb. n., Carepalxis furcifera (Keyserling, 1886), comb. n.; Cyclosa anatipes (Keyserling, 1887), comb. n.; Cyclosa apoblepta (Rainbow, 1916), comb. n.; Cyclosa argentaria (Rainbow, 1916), comb. n.; Cyclosa lichensis (Rainbow, 1916), comb. n.; Cyclosa poweri (Rainbow, 1916), comb. n.; Neoscona decolor (L.

The following two Australian species, currently placed in Araneus, are not Araneidae but comb-footed spiders (family Theridiidae Sundevall, 1833): Anelosimus dianiphus (Rainbow, 1916), comb. n. and Theridion xanthostichus (Rainbow, 1916), stat. and comb. n. The following six species are considered numina dubia as their type material is immature or otherwise unidentifiable (e.g. partly destroyed): Araneus acachmenus Rainbow, 1916; Araneus agastus Rainbow, 1916; Araneus exsertus Rainbow, 1904; Araneus suavis Rainbow, 1899; Carepalxis coronata (Rainbow, 1896); and Heurodes turritus Keyserling, 1886. Heurodes fratellus (Chamberlin, 1924) is considered a nomen dubium and Heurodes porcula (Simon, 1877) is returned to Eriovixia Archer, 1951, Eriovixia porcula (Simon, 1877). Type material of predominantly Australian species described by E. v. Keyserling (1 species), W. J. Rainbow (10 species), A. T. Urquhart (8 species), and C. A. Walckenaer (2 species) is here considered destroyed or otherwise lost. As it is impossible to identify these species from their original descriptions and considering the known spider fauna from their respective type localities, they are all considered numina dubia: Anepsia crinita Rainbow, 1893; Epeira diabrosis (Walckenaer, 1841); Epeira diversicolor Rainbow, 1893; Epeira ficta Rainbow, 1896; Epeira hamiltoni Rainbow, 1893; Epeira lacrymosa (Walckenaer, 1841); Epeira leai Rainbow, 1894; Epeira mortoni Urquhart, 1891; Epeira notacephala Urquhart, 1891; Epeira obscurta Urquhart, 1893; Epeira phalerata Urquhart, 1893; Epeira pronuba Rainbow, 1894; Epeira rara Keyserling, 1887; Epeira singulara Urquhart, 1891; Epeira sub-flavida Urquhart, 1893; Epeira similaris Rainbow, 1896 (= Araneus urquharti Roewer, 1942 replacement name); Epeira ventriosa Urquhart, 1891; and Epeira viridula Urquhart, 1891.

Full text

Abstract:

A new genus of orb-web spider (Araneidae Simon), Telaprocera gen. nov., including two new species, T. maudae sp. nov. (type species) and T. joanae sp. nov., are described. Telaprocera gen. nov. differs from all other araneid genera by the presence of a dorsal keel on the male cymbium. The known range of Telaprocera maudae sp. nov. is limited to the east coast of Australia, from far northern Queensland to central New South Wales. The spiders are found in closed canopy rainforest and adults can be found year round. Telaprocera joanae sp. nov. has been found from central coastal Queensland to far eastern Victoria. They occur in similar habitats, with similar phenology, as T. maudae sp. nov. Both species build highly elongated orb-webs known as ladder-webs. A variety of phylogenetic analyses based on an updated morphological data matrix for orb-web spiders did not provide a conclusive placement of Telaprocera gen. nov. within the Araneidae. Equally weighted analysis placed the genus as sister to Kaira O. P.-Cambridge and Metepeira F. O. P.Cambridge combined. Strong downweighting of homoplasious characters placed the genus as sister taxon to the traditional Argiopinae Simon. The uncertain phylogenetic position of Telaprocera gen. nov. may reflect the insufficient knowledge of the morphology of Australian taxa—taxa that may possess characters previously not considered in phylogenetic analyses of the Araneidae.

Abstract:

We have revised all the specimens of Araneidae from the Colombian Amazon Region in the Arachnological Collection of the Instituto de Ciencias Naturales at the Universidad Nacional de Colombia (ICN), in addition to the specimens collected between 2000 and 2004 by the authors in the lower Caquetá and Apaporis rivers (Amazonas and Vaupés, Colombia). A total of 77 new records for Araneidae in the Colombian Amazon are reported; 26 of these species are new records for the country and the region in addition to 15 more species known for Colombia but newly recorded in the region, the distribution of the remaining 36 species is expanded within the region. The genera Encyosaccus Simon 1865 (E. sexmaculatus Simon 1895), Hingstepeira Levi 1995 (H. folisecens Hingston 1932) and Micrepeira Schenkel 1953 (M. fowleri Levi 1995 and M. tubulofasciens Hingston 1932) are recorded for the first time in Colombia. From this revision, it is evident the great amount of new information available in museum collections. Due to the strategic geographic position of Colombia, species inventories in different localities of the Colombian Amazon Region are important to fill distributional gaps of many species in South America. This work contributes to the knowledge of geographic distribution patterns of orb-weaving species in Colombia and in the entire Amazon Region.

Abstract:

This study was carried out in the Parque Municipal das Araucárias, in the municipality of Guarapuava, southern Brazil. A total of 449 T. lactitarse nests were collected using trap-nests of different diameters. Fifty three species of spiders belonging to 7 families were captured by T. lactitarse. Araneidae was the most captured family and has been strongly represented by the genus Eustala. Through Bray-Curtis's coefficient and the unweighted pair group method average (UPGMA), the spiders species can be divided into 3 groups: the smaller group includes the most abundant species (Eustala sp1, Eustala sp2, Acacesia villalobosi, Alpaida sp1 and Araneus corporosus), the second group includes species with intermediate abundance (Wagneriana iguape, Araneus omnicolor, Eustala sp4, Alpaida grayi, Eustala sp3, Larinia t-notata, Mangora sp1 and Wagneriana iguape), and the third and largest group includes the least abundant species (Aysha gr. brevimana 1, Eustala sp5, Wagneriana eupalaestra, Alpaida scriba, Alpaida veniliae, Araneus aff. omnicolor, Araneus sicki, Eustala sp8, Mangora sp2, Mangora sp3, Wagneriana juquia, Alpaida sp2, Araneus blumenau, Eustala sp6, Eustala sp7 and Ocrepeira galianoae). Of 2,029 identified spiders, 1,171 were captured in the Araucaria forest, 612 in grassland areas and 246 in the swamp. Grassland and swamp areas evidenced greater similarity between them than to the Araucaria Forest, regarding presence-absence of spider species in T. lactitarse's diet, as well as regarding species abundance in these habitats. The juvenile number (56%) was significantly higher than the female (38%) and male (6%) percentages.

Abstract:

The genus Eopompilus Gussakovskij, 1932 is reviewed. A new species, Eopompilus pseudominor Loktionov, Lelej & Xu, sp. nov. is described and illustrated from China, Yunnan. A new synonymy is proposed for E. minor Gussakovskij, 1932 =E. minor itoi Ishikawa, 1965, syn. nov. A lectotype of E. orientalis Gussakovskij, 1932 is designated. The distribution of E. minor Gussakovskij and E. luteus Lelej is enlarged to include China. Araneus ventricosus (L. Koch) (Araneae, Araneidae) is a newly recorded host for E. luteus. An updated diagnosis of the genus Eopompilus, and key to females and males are given.

Abstract:

The fauna of spiders on the islands of the Peter the Great Gulf in the south of the Far East is poorly studied. Data on the species composition, abundance and biotopic distribution of orb-weaver spiders (Aranei: Araneidae) of Askold Island are given in the paper for the first time. The island is located in the Peter the Great Gulf in the south of Primorskii krai. The material was collected in autumn of 2014, 2015 and in August 2016. In autumn, random collection of spiders was made. In summer 2016, 21 key sites were selected on the island. The size of each site is 3×25 m. The spiders were collected using a sweeping method supplemented with a manual method. The biotopic correspondence of 12 species of spiders belonging to 7 genera was revealed. It has been established that the distribution of spiders throughout the island is uneven. The greatest diversity is noted in broad-leaved polydominant forests. Araneus ventricosus (L. Koch, 1878) whose density reaches 15 specimens per 100 m2 dominates there. Rocky beaches have the lowest species diversity. The only species is found there – A. ventricosus (density 4 specimens per 100 m2). Only Neoscona adianta (Walckenaer, 1802) (density 10 specimens per 100 m2) inhabits the swampy area with sedges. The map of the density of orb-weaver spiders has been compiled on the basis of original data of the author and satellite images. This map allows to estimate the distribution and density of population of spiders over the area of Askold island in the summer. Alenatea cf. wangi Zhu et Song, 1999 and Pronoides brunneus Schenkel, 1936 are recorded on the islands of the Peter the Great Gulf for the first time.
