نویسندگان
چکیده
The long-jawed orb-weavers of the family Tetragnathidae are a cosmopolitan spider clade, particularly diverse in humid tropical and subtropical areas world. subfamily Leucauginae comprises six genera genus Tylorida Simon, 1894 includes eight species. Four them reported from India comprehensive revision Indian species was published by Sankaran et al. (2017) with description T. flava as new but based only on female specimen. Here, male is described for first time along illustrations genitalia.

Proximate mechanism of behavioral manipulation of an orb-weaver spider host by a parasitoid wasp
Some ichneumonid wasps induce modifications in the web building behavior of their spider hosts to produce resistant "cocoon" webs. These structures hold and protect the wasp's cocoon during pupa development. The mechanism responsible for host manipulation probably involves the inoculation of psychotropic chemicals by the parasitoid larva during a specific developmental period. Recent studies in...

متن کاملA golden orb-weaver spider (Araneae: Nephilidae: Nephila) from the Middle Jurassic of China
Nephila are large, conspicuous weavers of orb webs composed of golden silk, in tropical and subtropical regions. Nephilids have a sparse fossil record, the oldest described hitherto being Cretaraneus vilaltae from the Cretaceous of Spain. Five species from Neogene Dominican amber and one from the Eocene of Florissant, CO, USA, have been referred to the extant genus Nephila. Here, we report the ...
متن کاملSpontaneous male death during copulation in an orb-weaving spider.
Males of some cannibalistic species of spiders and insects appear to sacrifice themselves by allowing the female to eat them, and the adaptive significance of such drastic terminal reproductive investment has recently been demonstrated for a spider. Typically, the female has to kill the male, but it has been suggested that males of some species in the cannibalistic orb-weaving spider genus Argi...
متن کاملAn RNA Virome Associated to the Golden Orb-Weaver Spider Nephila clavipes
The golden orb-weaver spider Nephila clavipes, known for its sexual size dimorphism, is abundant and widespread in the New World. The first annotated genome of orb-weaver spiders, exploring N. clavipes, has recently been reported. The study, focused primarily on the diversity of silk specific genes, shed light into the complex evolutionary history of spiders. Furthermore, a robust transcriptome...
