Spider Origami: Folding Principle of Jumping Spider Leg Joints for Bioinspired Fluidic Actuators [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2021
Jumping spiders (Phidippus regius) are known for their ability to traverse various terrains and have targeted jumps within the fraction of a second to catch flying preys.

Airborne Acoustic Perception by a Jumping Spider [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 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 ...

Jump takeoff in a small jumping spider [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Comparative Physiology A, 2021
Jumping in animals presents an interesting locomotory strategy as it requires the generation of large forces and accurate timing. Jumping in arachnids is further complicated by their semi-hydraulic locomotion system. Among arachnids, jumping spiders (Family Salticidae) are agile and dexterous jumpers.

Design of Gas Turbine Cooling System Based on Improved Jumping Spider Optimization Algorithm

open access: yesMachines, 2022
The gas turbine cooling system is a complex MIMO system with a strong coupling, nonlinear, time-varying and large disturbance amplitude. In order to automatically control the target flow, target temperature and pipeline pressure, in this paper, the ...

Visual prey categorization by a generalist jumping spider

open access: yesThe European Zoological Journal, 2022
The majority of jumping spiders are visual hunters that capture a wide range of prey. While they are known to use specific predatory techniques against different prey, their prey identification mechanisms are poorly understood.

Individual recognition in a jumping spider (Phidippus regius) [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2023
Individual 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 ...

Dimorphic Jumper Maevia inclemens (Walckenaer 1837) (Arachnida: Araneae: Salticidae)

open access: yesEDIS, 2018
Maevia inclemens is a common jumping spider found in vines and ivy along tree lines throughout eastern North America. Learn about this interesting and possibly agriculturally beneficial spider in this 3-page fact sheet written by Laurel Lietzenmayer and

Regal Jumping Spider, Phidippus regius C. L. Koch (Arachnida: Salticidae)

open access: yesEDIS, 2003
Except for two pantropical species (Edwards 1979), the jumping spider most frequently encountered in Florida is Phidippus regius C.L. Koch. This species is aptly named in terms of its size, as it is the largest jumping spider in eastern North America ...

Predator mimicry: metalmark moths mimic their jumping spider predators. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2006
Cases of mimicry provide many of the nature's most convincing examples of natural selection. Here we report evidence for a case of predator mimicry in which metalmark moths in the genus Brenthia mimic jumping spiders, one of their predators.

Jumping spider invades an orb web to prey on a resident male

open access: yesEcosphere, 2023
While surveying operational sex ratios of the giant golden orb weaver Nephila pilipes (Fabricius, 1793) in Singapore, we documented a stunning case of predatory behavior of a jumping spider Viciria pavesii Thorell, 1877. A female V.
