Download or read book The Structure of the Central Nervous System of Jumping Spiders of the Genus Phidippus Araneae Salticidae written by David Edwin Hill and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central nervous system of Phidippus, while comparable to that of other spiders in most respects, is distinguished by the extraordinary development of visual processing centers, associated with the complex visually-directed behavior of these animals. The primary neuropile of the anterior medial eyes consists of two distinct columnar synapsing regions. There is some evidence that the geometry of this structure may correspond to the arrangement of receptors in the anterior medial eyes. First-order interneurons link this primary neuropile with a less structured, massive secondary neuropile at the top of the syncerebrum. The optic nerve fibers of each lateral eye synapse in a convoluted primary neuropile. Two distinct first order interneuron types join this neurcroile to a lateral eye neuropile and the protocerebrum on one hand, and to the glomerular layer of the corpora pedunculata on the other. Each of these interneurons branches to form two separate synapsing regions in the primary neuropile. The small optic nerve of the posterior medial eyes synapses in a glomerular neuropile. Large interneuron fibers associated with this neuropile lead to the protocerebrum. This structure suggests a special role for information provided by the posterior medial eyes, perhaps in the regulation of diurnal activity patterns. In the corpora pedunculata, intrinsic fibers synapse anteriorly with first-order interneurons of the lateral eyes, and form linear fibers bearing numerous synaptic glomeruli in the pedunculus. The latter is the site of extensive synapsing with extrinsic fibers. The corpora pedunculata are considered to be secondary visual centers, quite possibly concerned with directed orientation to visual stimuli. In structure they are the analogs, rather than the homologs, of similar structures observed in annelids and in other arthropods. This distinction supports the separation of the Chelicerata from the latter groups. The structure of the central body agrees with its accepted role as either a major association center, or as the source of complex programmed behavior.

Download or read book Biology of Spiders written by Rainer Foelix and published by OUP USA. This book was released on 2011-05-05 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the only books to treat the whole spider, from its behavior and physiology to its neurobiology and reproductive characteristics, Biology of Spiders is considered a classic in spider literature. First published in German in 1979, the book is now in its third edition, and has established itself as the supreme authority on these fascinating creatures. Containing five hundred new references, this book incorporates the latest research while dispelling many oft-heard myths and misconceptions that surround spiders. Of special interest are chapters on the structure and function of spider webs and silk, as well as those on spider venom. A new subchapter on tarantulas will appeal especially to tarantula keepers and breeders. The highly accessible text is supplemented by exceptional, high-quality photographs, many of them originals, and detailed diagrams. It will be of interest to arachnologists, entomologists, and zoologists, as well as to academics, students of biology, and the general reader curious about spiders.
Download or read book Behaviour and Ecology of Spiders written by Carmen Viera and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-02 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the last few decades, arachnology in the Neotropical region has experienced a great development filling the knowledge gap in one of the most diverse regions of the world. Nevertheless, large geographical areas remain poorly sampled, especially within the Amazon, and new genera and species have been continuously discovered, even in urban areas. In congruence with the recent improvements in research, several aspects of the ecology, behaviour and natural history of spiders, such as interactions with other predators and parasitoids, social interactions, dispersal patterns, habitat requirements, mating behaviors, among others, are being carefully investigated. These recent contributions incorporate substantial information on the preexisting knowledge on these subjects every year. Our main objective with this book is to present a summary on these new researches and on the currently knowledge on the main subjects involved in the general theme, emphasizing the contribution of the rich fauna of the Neotropical region to the research of behaviour and ecology of the spiders.
