Phoretic relationships between Uropodina (Acari: Mesostigmata) and centipedes (Chilopoda) as an example of evolutionary adaptation of mites to temporary microhabitats

European Journal of Entomology, 2006
A survey of soil fauna in Poland revealed 30 cases of centipedes carrying mites of the sub-order Uropodina. The 155 phoretic deutonymphs collected belonged to two species of Uropodina - Oodinychus ovalis (C.L.

Natural History of Dolomedes schauinslandi, a Range Restricted Fishing Spider From Hokoreroro | Rangatira | South East Island

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 1, March 2026.
Dolomedes schauinslandi Simon 1899 is a large fishing spiderspecies endemic to the Chatham Islands, New Zealand. Today, it only occurs on remote offshore islands, being extinct from most islands of the archipelago. Unusual for a fishing spider, D. schauinslandi has evolved a terrestrial lifestyle, inhabiting forests and feeding predominantly on cave ...

Millipedes and centipedes in wetland alder stands in north-eastern Poland

Soil Organisms, 2009
Using soil sampling and subsequent heat extraction of animals, four alder stands in the wetlands of the Biebrza, Narew and BiałowieŜa national parks, north-eastern Poland, were surveyed for millipedes and centipedes. Among 12 millipede species revealed,

Artificial Shelters as a Monitoring and Conservation Tool for Terrestrial Breeding Frogs [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Artificial concrete and wooden shelters were tested as low‐impact tools for monitoring a cryptic terrestrial‐breeding frog, Austrochaperina robusta, in the Australian Wet Tropics. Frogs overwhelmingly preferred concrete shelters, which provided stronger thermal buffering, supported higher occupancy across seasons, and were the only shelters used for ...

The spiny trapdoor spider Blakistonia aurea (Mygalomorphae: Idiopidae) as a model to better understand the natural history of cryptic spiders

Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract The diverse infraorder Mygalomorphae includes fossorial and cryptic spiders, such as tarantulas and trapdoor spiders. Their ability to disperse is often highly limited, rendering some mygalomorphs as rare short‐range endemics. These species are vulnerable to landscape changes, often hard to detect, and have poorly understood reproductive ...
