Koedoe: African Protected Area Conservation and Science, 2005 Marion Island, the larger of the Prince Edward Islands, lies in the sub-Antarctic biogeographic region in the southern Indian Ocean. From previous surveys, four spider species are known from Marion. The last survey was undertaken in 1968.

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 4, May 2026.ABSTRACT Spiders are renowned for their ecological versatility and silk‐based innovations in materials science, yet marine environments remain virtually uncolonized by this predominantly terrestrial lineage. A striking exception is the obligate intertidal spider genus Desis, whose members have evolved extraordinary physiological and behavioural ...

Solenysa, a Cretaceous Relict Spider Group in East Asia
Diversity, 2022 A time scale of phylogenetic relationships contributes to a better understanding of the evolutionary history of organisms. Herein, we investigate the temporal divergence pattern that gave rise to the poor species diversity of the spider genus Solenysa in

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 3, Page 598-620, May 2026.In a given number of samples, grassland sward islets contain more species of arthropods than the surrounding sward. When corrected for abundance, there is no difference in species richness, suggesting that the effect of islets might purely be to concentrate arthropods. The community structure differences indicated by non‐metric multidimensional scaling

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 5, May 2026.ABSTRACT Aim Understanding why closely related species can have drastically different distributional range sizes is a fundamental question in biology. However, answering this question is challenging due to the multiple inter‐related factors that shape species distributions, particularly in continental regions, where unclear ecological and geographic ...

Effects of reindeer grazing and recovery after cessation of grazing on the ground-dwelling spider assemblage in Finnish Lapland [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 The effect of reindeer Rangifer tarandus L. grazing on the ground-dwelling spider assemblage in Northern Finland was studied. Changes in species richness, abundance and evenness of spider assemblages were analyzed in relation to changes in vegetation and
