Proszynellus--a new jumping spider genus from Australia (Araneae: Salticidae).
The new genus Proszynellus is described from Western Australia to include three new species: P. nasalis (♂♀), P. wandae (♂♀) and P. occidentalis (♂), the first being designated the generic type. Diagnosis, descriptions, illustrations and distributional maps for all species are provided. Based on morphological characters, especially male palp and vulva, the genus is tentatively placed in Helioph...
متن کاملJerzego, a new hisponine jumping spider from Borneo (Araneae: Salticidae).
A new genus and species of hisponine jumping spider from Sarawak, Jerzego corticicola Maddison sp. nov. are described, representing one of the few hisponine jumping spiders known from Asia, and the only whose male is known. Although similar to the primarily-Madagascan genus Hispo in having an elongate and flat body, sequences of 28s and 16sND1 genes indicate that Jerzego is most closely related...
متن کاملNew unidentate jumping spider genera (Araneae: Salticidae) from Australia.
The Australian fauna includes large numbers of undescribed, tiny, litter-living, jumping spiders. In this paper four monotypic new genera (Ananeon howardensis n. g. n. sp., Barraina anfracta n. g. n.sp., Frewena maculata n.g. n.s., and Pungalina weiri n.g, n.sp.) are described. Two species (Neon taylori n.sp. and Neon australis n. sp.) representing the two distinctive morphological patterns fou...
متن کاملPredatory behavior of the zebra spider, Salticus scenicus (Araneae: Salticidae)
DILL, L. M. 1975. Predatory behavior of the zebra spider, Salticus scenicus (Araneae: Salticidae). Can. J. Zool. 53: 1284-1289. The zebra spider (Salticus scenicus), a small jumping spider, orients towards prey detected by its lateral eyes whenever the angle subtended by such prey exceeds 5.5". The velocity of the prey is not involved in the determination of reactive distance, but only moving o...
متن کاملSeismic signals in a courting male jumping spider (Araneae: Salticidae).
Visual displays in jumping spiders have long been known to be among the most elaborate animal communication behaviours. We now show that one species, Habronattus dossenus, also exhibits an unprecedented complexity of signalling behaviour in the vibratory (seismic) modality. We videotaped courtship behaviour and used laser vibrometry to record seismic signals and observed that each prominent vis...
