SpiderATLAS: A Database of Spider Traits and Distributions in the Brazilian Atlantic Forest

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Aim Biodiversity shortfalls related to limited knowledge about geographic distribution (Wallacean) and species traits (Raunkiæran) are extremely common in many animal groups and perhaps more evident in invertebrate groups such as spiders. This lack of knowledge could present challenges for researchers investigating the response and effects of ...

EineTapinauchenius-Art aus Ekuador (Araneida, Theraphosidae) [Tapinauchenius species from Ecuador (Araneida, Theraphosidae)]

open access: yesDeutsche Entomologische Zeitschrift (neue Folge), 1994
The new Tapinauchenius species can be distinguished from T. gigas di Caporiacco, 1954 by its shorter legs, other dentition of chelicera and the front row of eyes less weakly procurved. The spermatheca differs from that of T. plumipes (C. L. Koch, 1842) by thicker receptacula seminis which end with 5 or 6 small ovoides instead of one knob as in other ...

Semi‐tilling maintains the arthropod food web structure but decreases biological pest control in olive groves

open access: yesAnnals of Applied Biology, Volume 187, Issue 3, Page 345-355, November 2025.
Semi‐tillage, a widely used agricultural method to improve water availability and minimise soil erosion in crops, may compromise pest control in olive groves. Stable isotopes (N15 and C13) analysis showed an effect of semi‐tillage in the composition of the basal resources of potential natural enemies in the three olive grove strata: These changes may ...

Minimising insect mortality during grassland mowing: The potential of insect chasing devices

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 18, Issue 6, Page 1086-1098, November 2025.
Insect chasing devices have a great potential to deter arthropods prior to mowing, thereby reducing mortality. The effectiveness of mechanical flushing bars is limited and depends on driving speed, vegetation structure and species composition. The blowing device is the most independent of external factors and therefore the most effective.
