Jüngst (2004 bis 2006) wurden noch zu bestimmende Schizomiden in zwei Gewächshäusern in Deutschland gefunden. Da derartige Fälle sehr selten zu sein scheinen, möchten wir solche Meldungen zusammentragen und bitten hiermit um Literaturhinweise und Vermittlung/Zusendung von eventuell weiteren vorhandenen Exemplaren.
The spider fauna of open habitats adjacent to arable land was investigated in northern Switzerland. The three habitat types were (1) herbaceous edges of fields (Sa), (2) fallow land sowed with flowers (BB), and (3) grass borders of fields (GS). Four funnel pitfall traps (10 cm diameter) were used to catch spiders in three stripe-types in two geographical regions in two years over 5 weeks in May and June: in total 12 sets of data. Spider species typical for open habitats were dominant, mostly lycosids (6 of the 10 most active species). The results were analysed together with environmental factors using a canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) and spiders were compared with carabid beetles (Coeloptera: Carabidae). Geographical region, though not very distant, had the largest influence on both spiders and carabids. The age and type of the habitats had a stronger influence on spiders than on carabids. In spiders a larger part of the total variance was explained by the analysed factors. Finally we discuss briefly a remarkable spider species. A review of all known records of Phrurolithus nigrinus in Switzerland and Germany, together with adjacent regions in France, is given. Its phenology is indicated, its habitat discussed and the overall distribution within Europe is listed.
In the course of a long term survey on the effects of grazing on the diversity of alpine grasslands, the false scorpion Chthonius (Ephippiochthonius) poeninus Mahnert, 1979 was recorded for the first time outside of Switzerland. The preferred habitat at the locality Alpe Einödsberg (Germany, Bavaria) differs strongly from previous findings. Our data suggest an association with Nardus grasslands (Geo montani-Nardetum), whereas earlier records originated from leaf litter, moss and mouldy trunks. Furthermore, the new records between 1540 m and 1973 m above sea level are the first from the subalpine region of the Alps (hitherto C. poeninus was known from 550 m to 1450 m). In the study region, extensive grazing seems to have a positive effect on the abundance of the species, while it is missing from intensively grazed pastures.
Der stabil gebundene Band, gedruckt auf Hochglanzpapier im A5-Format, wirkt schon auf den ersten Blick recht ansprechend. Der Katalog umfasst ein riesiges Areal: Rußland vom Ural bis zum Pazifik, die Mongolei, beide Teile Koreas, sowie den Norden von Kasachstan, China und Japan (Hokkaido) - das Gebiet ist also in erster Linie geografisch definiert. Ein Blick auf einen Atlas/Globus zeigt, dass es (bis auf das flache sumpfige Westsibirien) in weiten Teilen Mittel- und vor allem Hochgebirgsareale enthalt. Dazu kommen natürlich noch Habitate an Küsten, Fluss- und Seeufem, Sümpfe, usw.
Seit der Bearbeitung der 1. Fassung der Roten Liste der Spinnen Deutschlands durch HARMS (1984) sind mehr als 10 Jahre vergangen. Die Kenntnisse über Verbreitung, Ökologie und Gefährdung dieser Tiergruppe haben sich seither erheblich vermehrt, Überwiegend durch die Ergebnisse faunistisch-ökologischer Untersuchungen im Rahmen von Gutachten, z. B. für Umweltverträglichkeitsprüfungen oder Unterschutzstellungsverfahren.
The genus Araeoncoides Wunderlich, 1969, containing a single species A. berolinensis Wunderlich, 1969, is revised and transferred to the genus Moebelia Dahl, 1886 (nov. syn.). The female is described for the first time. All six known records are reported. Distribution, habitat and phenology are discussed. Until now, records are known exclusively from Germany.
Data and a drawing of the epigyne of Phoneutria boliviensis (F.O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1897), recently recorded from Germany, are presented. The specimen was introduced with cargo (bananas) from Brazil. Characters of the single female are illustrated to facilitate identification in the future, since in the two recent revisions of the genus no drawing of the epigyne of P. boliviensis was included. Another case of introduction from 1998 of an unidentified subadult Phoneutria specimen, probably P. boliviensis too, with bananas from Ecuador is documented.
