Seismic signals are crucial for male mating success in a visual specialist jumping spider (Araneae: Salticidae)
The diversity of courtship displays throughout the animal kingdom is immense and displays can range from seemingly simple, to incredibly complex. Signalers often possess elaborate morphological adaptations for signals directed at a specific sensory modality in receivers. In some cases, these signals are so compelling to human observers, the possibility that important signals exist in other sens...
متن کاملAirborne Acoustic Perception by a Jumping Spider
Jumping spiders (Salticidae) are famous for their visually driven behaviors [1]. Here, however, we present behavioral and neurophysiological evidence that these animals also perceive and respond to airborne acoustic stimuli, even when the distance between the animal and the sound source is relatively large (∼3 m) and with stimulus amplitudes at the position of the spider of ∼65 dB sound pressur...
متن کاملCues by which Portia fimbriata, an araneophagic jumping spider, distinguishes jumping-spider prey from other prey.
Portia fimbriata from Queensland, Australia, is an araneophagic jumping spider (Salticidae) that includes in its predatory strategy a tactic (cryptic stalking) enabling it to prey effectively on a wide range of salticids from other genera. Optical cues used by P. fimbriata to identify the salticid species on which it most commonly preys, Jacksonoides queenslandicus, were investigated experiment...
متن کاملOptics of the ultraviolet reflecting scales of a jumping spider.
The jumping spider Cosmophasis umbratica from Singapore is strongly sexually dimorphic. The males, but not the females, reflect ultraviolet as well as green-orange light. The scales responsible for this are composed of a chitin-air-chitin sandwich in which the chitin layers are three-quarters of a wavelength thick and the air gap a quarter wavelength (where lambda=600 nm, the peak wavelength of...
متن کاملInner Workings: Inside the mind of a jumping spider.
At first, there were explosions. Neurobiologists investigating the peculiar behavior of the jumping spider sought to record its neurons. But the scientists’method always spelled doom for the creatures: peeling back the spiders’ exoskeleton to expose the brain caused vital fluids to burst forth. For decades, neurobiologists and ecologists have struggled to understand just how the poppy seed-size...
