A new species of Harpactea Bristowe, 1939, H. alanyana sp. n. is described from southern Turkey. The appears closely related to osellai Brignoli, 1978. Detailed description and illustrations the are provided. relationships two discussed.
A new genus of troglomorphic Dysderidae is described, based mainly on the morphology copulatory organs. The Kut gen. nov. , with type species Harpactocrates troglophilus Brignoli, 1978, also includes two recently discovered from coastal Mediterranean Turkey: izmiricus sp. and K. dimensis All three display traits, most distinct in Another genus-level trait a characteristic simple bulb males. Female organ shows similarity to endemic Caucasian Cryptoparachtes Dunin, 1992 paraspermatheca...
The adult stage of a bat-parasitizing chigger mite Leptotrombidium miniopteri Feider, 1966 known from Romania was described for the first time based on specimens collected in Hacı Akif Cave located Konya Province Türkiye. identification larval offspring obtained one female kept alive laboratory. At same time, free larvae identified as L. were place within cave. A re-description prepared both nature and those comparison with closely related species carried out morphometric meristic traits....
Macroecologists seek to identify drivers of community turnover ( β -diversity) through broad spatial scales. However, the influence local habitat features in driving broad-scale -diversity patterns remains largely untested, owing objective challenges associating local-scale variables continental-framed datasets. We examined relative contribution local- versus continental patterns, using a uniquely suited dataset cave-dwelling spider communities across Europe (35–70° latitude). Generalized...
Abstract Mass media plays an important role in the construction and circulation of risk perception associated with animals. Widely feared groups such as spiders frequently end up spotlight traditional social media. We compiled expert-curated global database on online newspaper coverage human-spider encounters over past ten years (2010–2020). This includes information about location each encounter reported news article a quantitative characterisation content—location, presence photographs...
Spiders (Arachnida: Araneae) are widespread in subterranean ecosystems worldwide and represent an important component of trophic webs. Yet, global-scale diversity patterns spiders still mostly unknown. In the frame CAWEB project, a European joint network cave arachnologists, we collected data on cave-dwelling spider communities across Europe order to explore their continental patterns. Two main datasets were compiled: one listing all species recorded numerous localities another with high...
A new species of the troglobitic spider genus Typhlonesticus is described from specimens found in Keloğlan Cave (Denizli Province, Dodurgalar Town), Turkey. gocmeni sp. n. on basis both sexes; and its phylogenetic relationships with closely related European genera are discussed based morphological molecular data (the cox1, rrnL H3 genes). Three combinations proposed: idriacus (Roewer, 1931), comb. n., morisii (Brignoli, 1975) obcaecatus (Simon, 1907), all ex Nesticus.
This study was conducted with 30 common plant species growing at different altitudes (1500 m, 2000 2500 m and 3000 m) of Mount Ergan in the province Erzincan. The concentration mineral elements determined collected plants soils which they grew 1500 altitude (Alcea calvertii (Boiss) Boiss., Glaucium leiocarpum Astragalus ornithopodioides Lam., Genista aucheri Linum mucronatum Bertol, Anchusa leptophylla Roem. & Schult, Euphorbia virgata Waldst. Kit.), (Tanacetum mucroniferum Hub. Mor. Et...
A new genus and species of the Microtrombidiidae, Troglotrombidium dolichopodum n. gen. et sp. is described based on ectoparasitic larvae collected from two Dolichopoda lycia (Galvagni 2006) (Orthoptera: Rhaphidophoridae) specimens a cave in Western Taurus Mountains, Turkey. The can be distinguished other genera by absence eyes, highly modified claws tarsi III, sensillary setae structure anterior dorsal scutum, number adoral setae. typical troglobite, this interspecific interaction...
A new troglobitic species, Harpactea karaschkhan sp.n. (females only), inhabiting Yalandu ¨nya Mag ˘arası of Gazipa sa (Antalya Province, Turkey) is described.Detailed morphological description and illustrations the species are provided.The relationships discussed.
Two new species, Harpactea arnedoi sp. n. and H. kencei n., are described on the basis of both sexes from eastern Mediterranean Aegean regions Turkey. can be easily distinguished all other Turkish European representatives genus by structure flattened, massive embolus male copulatory organ. Although resembling Stalagtia in palpal morphology, we describe one species as For detailed morphological descriptions diagnoses presented together with figures organs.
Dasumia gasparoi sp. n. is described based on specimens of both sexes. The new species compared with the similar D. crassipalpis (Simon, 1882), from Syria; and mariandyna Brignoli, 1979, only previously known genus recorded Turkey. Furthermore, we point out that, due to some contradictions original description genus, may necessarily belong another genus. Detailed morphological descriptions, diagnosis figures copulatory organs are presented.
A remarkable dwarf schizopetalid, Euxinopetalum dobatorum Hoffman, 1973, is rediscovered in the Heracles Cave (type locality) Turkey. This poorly known species recorded after more than 50 years and illustrated here with photographs, photomicrographs, scanning electron micrographs, including descriptive notes remarks. The small body size reduced number of segments Callipodida are briefly discussed, while question about type locality clarified.
New records of 3 genera and species Salticidae from Turkey are presented for Bianor albobimaculatus (Lucas, 1846), Dendryphantes rudis (Sundevall, 1833) Hyllus insularis Metzner, 1999. Their morphology is briefly described illustrated. Current knowledge on diversity in also reviewed. Total number recorded now 102.
Bu çalışma, Erzincan il sınırları içerisinde yer alan Ergan Dağı’nın farklı yüksekliklerinde yetişen yaygın 30 bitki türü ile yapılmıştır. Çalışma kapsamında 1500 m, 2000 2500 m ve 3000 olmak üzere yüksekliklerden toplanan bitkilerde yetiştikleri topraklarda metal (Cd, Cr, Pb, Co, Ba) konsantrasyonları tespit edilmiştir. Toplanan bitkilerin çiçek, yaprak kök topraklar laboratuvarda ön işlemlerden geçirilmiştir. Hazır hale getirilen örneklerde ICP-MS’te analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Elde...
We recorded the tent-web spider Cyrtophora citricola (Forsskål, 1775) (Araneidae: Cyrtophorinae) from Turkey for first time at two sites.Body measurements and a brief description of female are presented, as well information on sites (olive orange orchards, shrubs) accompanying fauna.
Türkiye'nin Harpacteinae faunasını belirlemeye yönelik yapılan arazi çalışmalarında daha evvel erkek bireyler üzerinden betimlenen Harpactea erseni ve H . pugio türlerine ait ilave örnekler toplanmış; her iki türün de taksonomik karakterlerini oluşturan dişi bireylerinin üreme organlarına ayrıntılı fotoğraflar verilmiş, betimlemeler yapılmış türlerin dağılımı harita üzerinde gösterilmiştir. , organı bazı diğer karakterleri itibarıyla, cins için tanımlanan rubicunda (D) tür grununa dahildir....
Ero flammeola Simon, 1881 is recorded for the first time from Turkey.Characteristic features and photographs of copulatory organs are presented together with information on geographical distribution species.
A new species, Lathys ankaraensis sp. n., is described based on the material collected in Central Anatolia. The species belongs to humilis-group. Habitus, as well copulatory organs of both sexes, are and illustrated by means line drawings digital SEM photographs. key for four known Turkey also provided.
