Short Communication the Use of Fruits by the Neotropical Harvestman Neosadocus Variabilis (opiliones, Laniatores, Gonyleptidae)
Harvestmen are solitary, nocturnal foragers that have a variety of feeding habits, ranging from scavenging to predation (see review in Gnaspini 1996). Although harvestmen seem to be generalist omnivorous arthropods, accepting both plant and animal matter, several species show a tendency to carnivory (Bris-Reports of fru-givory in harvestmen are scarce and in general are restricted to captive an...
متن کاملRevision of the cranaid genera Phalangodus, Iquitosa and Aguaytiella (Opiliones: Laniatores: Gonyleptoidea).
The monotypic genus Temucus Roewer, 1943, originally placed in Pachylinae (Gonyleptidae) is transferred to the Cranainae (Cranaidae) and synonymized with Phalangodus Gervais, 1842, therefore Phalangodus palpiconus (Roewer, 1943) comb. nov. is proposed. The synonymy is based on the following features: (i) the outline of dorsal scutum type alpha; (ii) the thickened pedipalpal claw in males; (iii)...
متن کاملThe assamiids harvestmen (Opiliones: Laniatores: Assamiidae) from Champasak Province, Laos.
Three assamiids species are recorded from southern Laos, two of which are new: Paramaracandus dolabratus sp. nov. (male) and Simalurius suzukii sp. nov. (male and female). Mysorea thaiensis Suzuki, 1985, that was previously known only from the type locality in northern Thailand is redescribed here. The family Assamiidae was first recorded from Laos.
متن کاملBehavioral Repertory of the Neotropical Harvestman Ilhaia Cuspidata (opiliones, Gonyleptidae)
In this study, we provide an ethogram for the harvestman Ilhaia cuspidata and describe the daily activity pattern of captive individuals. We also provide a comparison between the behavioral repertory of this species with that of the syntopic Discocyrtus oliverioi. Five females and four males of I. cuspidata were maintained in the same terrarium from November 1999–November 2000 for qualitative a...
متن کاملIntegrative Taxonomy and Species Delimitation in Harvestmen: A Revision of the Western North American Genus Sclerobunus (Opiliones: Laniatores: Travunioidea)
Alpha taxonomy, and specifically the delimitation of species, is becoming increasingly objective and integrative. The use of coalescent-based methods applied to genetic data is providing new tools for the discovery and delimitation of species. Here, we use an integrative approach via a combination of discovery-based multivariate morphological analyses to detect potential new species. These pote...
