Defaecation behaviour of Argiope aurantia (Araneae: Araneidae)
We examined the defaecation behaviour of Argiope aurantia both in natural situations and in a greenhouse. The spiders defaecated more frequently at night than during the day. The nightly pattern of defaecation was not related to time of feeding. A. aurantia displayed at least two distinct behaviours related to defaecation, one of which involved leaving the web. These results are discussed in re...
متن کاملRevision of the orb-weaving spider genus Verrucosa McCook, 1888 (Araneae, Araneidae).
The araneid spider genus Verrucosa McCook, 1888 is revised. Five of the seven previously known species, V. arenata (Walckenaer, 1841), V. lampra Soares & Camargo, 1948, V. meridionalis (Keyserling, 1892), V. undecimvariolata (O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1889) and V. zebra (Keyserling, 1892), are redescribed and illustrated. In addition, 37 new species of Verrucosa from the Neotropical region are desc...
متن کاملActivity patterns in different developmental stages and sexes of Larinioides sclopetarius (Clerck) (Araneae, Araneidae)
The foraging behaviour in web building spiders involves: (1) placing the web in the habitat, (2) constructing the web, (3) attacking prey entangled in the web, and (4) ingesting prey (Leborgne et al., 1991). Foraging theory suggests that organisms should exhibit foraging behaviour that optimizes the relationship between benefits and costs (Schoener, 1971; Pyke et al., 1977). The two major benef...
متن کاملFunction of bright coloration in the wasp spider Argiope bruennichi (Araneae: Araneidae).
There are two major competing explanations for the counter-intuitive presence of bright coloration in certain orb-web spiders. Bright coloration could lure insect prey to the web vicinity, increasing the spider's foraging success. Alternatively, the markings could function as disruptive camouflage, making it difficult for the insect prey to distinguish spiders from background colour variation. ...
متن کاملA new combination expands the range of the African araneid spider Singafrotypa (Araneae, Araneidae)
Study of the syntype of Larinioides subinermis, a species known from Ethiopia only, revealed that it actually belongs to Singafrotypa Benoit, 1962. We redescribe Singafrotypa subinermis (Caporiacco, 1940), comb. n., and provide a key to females of four species belonging to Singafrotypa. A distribution map for all species is provided.
