Female genital morphology and sperm priority patterns in spiders (Araneae)
For spiders, gross female spermathecal morphology has been widely used as the major predictor of sperm priority pattern depending either upon taxonomic classification or on the number of ducts that connect with the spermathecae. In order to establish whether, or to what degree, the female reproductive tract follows a cul-de-sac (one duct connects to the spermatheca) or a conduit design (two duc...
متن کاملFemale responses to isolated signals from multimodal male courtship displays in the wolf spider genus Schizocosa (Araneae: Lycosidae).
Male wolf spiders within the genus Schizocosa display considerable variation in foreleg ornamentation as well as in courtship communication. Multiple modes of male signalling have evolved in a number of species. Divergence in courtship signals among species within this genus may be directly associated with variation in the sensory sensitivities of conspecific females. We isolated the visual and...
متن کاملDescription of the female of Allocosa yurae (Strand, 1908) (Araneae: Lycosidae, Allocosinae).
The genus Allocosa has a worldwide distribution with 139 described species and only 51 (36.7%) are known by both the sexes (Platnick 2013). Dondale and Redner (1983) reviewed the species of Allocosa from North and Central America, and stated that Allocosa is a New World genus. Three New World species, Allocosa tenebrosa (Thorell, 1897), A. danneili (Dahl, 1908) and A. yurae (Strand, 1908), were...
متن کاملVisual odometry in the wolf spider Lycosa tarantula (Araneae: Lycosidae).
The wolf spider Lycosa tarantula homes using path integration. The angular component of the displacement is measured using a polarized-light compass associated with the functioning of the anterior median eyes. However, how L. tarantula estimates the linear component of the displacement was not known prior to this investigation. The ability of L. tarantula to gauge the distance walked after bein...
