Jumping spider phylogeny (Araneae : Salticidae)

Invertebrate Systematics, 2003
A phylogenetic analysis of five sequenced genes ( 28S , 16S , EF1 -a, CO1 , ND1 ) from 81 genera of jumping spiders (Salticidae) and five outgroups supports the monophyly of the Dendryphantinae and Euophryinae and refines the concepts of the Plexippinae and Pelleninae.

Phylogenetic relationships and systematics of the jumping spider genus Colopsus with the description of eight new species from Sri Lanka (Araneae: Salticidae)

Journal of Natural History, 2020
The Sri Lankan jumping spider species first described as Colopsus cancellatus and its close relatives are an understudied yet charismatic part of the fauna of the island.

Rearing environment affects behaviour of jumping spiders

Animal Behaviour, 2000
We tested the effect of rearing conditions on the behaviour of jumping spiders, Phidippus audax. Spiders were assigned randomly to either small or large cages that either were empty or contained a painted dowel. Laboratory-reared spiders were raised from second instar to adult in these environments.

Cues by which Portia Fimbriata, An Araneophagic Jumping Spider, Distinguishes Jumping-Spider Prey From Other Prey

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2000
ABSTRACT Portia fimbriata from Queensland, Australia, is an araneophagic jumping spider (Salticidae) that includes in its predatory strategy a tactic (cryptic stalking) enabling it to prey effectively on a wide range of salticids from other genera. Optical cues used by P.

Firefly flashing and jumping spider predation

Animal Behaviour, 2012
Bioluminescent flashing in fireflies, while primarily a sexual signal, is known to deter some predators while attracting others. We tested whether flashing serves an antipredator function against two species of diurnal, visually hunting jumping spiders, Phidippus princeps and Phidippus audax. To confirm anecdotal reports that fireflies flash during the

Spectral sensitivities of jumping spider eyes

Journal of Comparative Physiology ? A, 1976
Spectral sensitivities of the anterior lateral, posterior lateral and anterior median eyes of the jumping spider,Menemerus confusus Boes. et Str. have been studied by recording electroretinograms (ERGs) and receptor potentials. The anterior and posterior lateral eyes have a single type of visual cell with a maximum spectral sensitivity at about 535–540

Visual attention and processing in jumping spiders

Trends in Neurosciences
Jumping spiders have extraordinary vision. Using multiple, specialized eyes, these spiders selectively gather and integrate disparate streams of information about motion, color, and spatial detail. The saccadic movements of a forward-facing pair of eyes allow spiders to inspect their surroundings and identify objects.
