Manfred Moritz 60 Jahre alt
(1991)
Am 12. September 1991 beging der Arachnologe Dr. Manfred MORITZ (Berlin) seinen 60. Geburtstag. Sein langjähriges Wirken als Kustos am Museum für Naturkunde der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, das seinen Niederschlag auch in zahlreichen wissenschaftlichen Publikationen und umfangreicher
Korrespondenz fand, wird aus der Sicht des Gratulanten dargestellt.
The ground-living spider fauna of a drained bottom land forest area was investigated at 5 sites in the vicinity of the Danube river near Dillingen/Bavaria. Four series of pitfall traps were set up in the bottom land forest area, while a fifth series was installed in a dry, sunny clearing. Observation period was from early April through late November 1985. A total numberof 1447 adult spiders belonging to 94 species were oaught. The main result was that the small, dry clearing area harbors a rather specific spider community that is distinctly different from those of the neighbouring wet areas in the forest.
