Airborne Acoustic Perception by a Jumping Spider. [PDF]
Curr Biol, 2016 Jumping spiders (Salticidae) are famous for their visually driven behaviors [1]. Here, however, we present behavioral and neurophysiological evidence that these animals also perceive and respond to airborne acoustic stimuli, even when the distance between the animal and the sound source is relatively large (∼3 m) and with stimulus amplitudes at the ...

The Two-Photon Reversible Reaction of the Bistable Jumping Spider Rhodopsin-1. [PDF]
Biophys J, 2019 Bistable opsins are photopigments expressed in both invertebrates and vertebrates. These light-sensitive G-protein-coupled receptors undergo a reversible reaction upon illumination.

Individual recognition in a jumping spider (Phidippus regius) [PDF]
eLifeIndividual recognition is conceptually complex and computationally intense, leading to the general assumption that this social knowledge is solely present in vertebrates with larger brains, while miniature-brained animals in differentiating societies ...

AN ENHANCED JUMPING SPIDER OPTIMIZATION ALGORITHM [PDF]
Carpathian Journal of Electrical Engineering, 2022 Jumping Spider Optimization (JSO) algorithm is a more recent meta-heuristic algorithm shown to outperform recent algorithms in the literature. This paper presents a JSO variant that modifies standard JSO in its global search and jumping on prey phases to

A wolf in sheep's clothing: The description of a fly resembling jumping spider of the genus Scoturius Simon, 1901 (Araneae: Salticidae: Huriini). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Fly resemblance in arthropods is much less common than e.g., resemblance to ants or wasps, and has been mainly observed in beetles. Putative fly mimicry in arachnids has been reported only from the jumping spider genus Saitis.

Early environmental conditions shape personality types in a jumping spider [PDF]
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2015 Individuals of many species across the animal kingdom are found to be less plastic than expected, even in behavioral traits. The existence of consistent behavioral differences between individuals, termed personality differences, is puzzling, since ...

Innate pattern recognition and categorization in a jumping spider. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The East African jumping spider Evarcha culicivora feeds indirectly on vertebrate blood by preferentially preying upon blood-fed Anopheles mosquitoes, the vectors of human malaria1, using the distinct resting posture and engorged abdomen characteristic ...
