    Extractions: Students explore basic ecology concepts and scientific processes using spiders as model organisms. They will capture spiders, observe and care for them, and use them to answer their own questions about spider behavior. Modeling the process of a research scientist, each team of students will design and conduct their own experiment. Simultaneously, the class will collaborate on joint projects investigating feeding rates of spiders and their importance in controlling the numbers of insects (by conducting a field study on or near school grounds). Designed for both middle and high school students

    Extractions: The cephalothorax includes the head, eyes, and mouth parts along with four pairs of seven segmented legs attached to the sternum. For protection, a carapace (or hard outer shell) covers the upper cephalothorax. Usually araneae maintain eight eyes and a pair of jaws (cheliceral). Venom travels through the glands inside the head, into the fangs (extending from the jaw), and prepares to paralyze or kill the prey. In order to crush the victim, the pedipalps and cheliceral rub against each other.

    Extractions: heritage area Australia leads the world in its number of resident venomous spiders as well as the strength of their toxicity. However, of almost 9,800 species (about 2,500 species have been named)of spiders in 70 families throughout the country, most are perfectly harmless and interesting. As with other animal types, spider diversity in the Wet Tropics is broad and many fascinating species occur here that range from the ominously large to the tiny and hardly noticed, and from the dullest browns or black to the vibrantly hued or deceptively shaped. Spiders are classified according the strategies they use for feeding. Spiders which appeared earlier in the evolutionary scale feed by waiting in a burrow for food to come along before grabbing it. Following them are spiders which actively wander looking for food and which catch it by ambush or chasing it down. The evolution of flying insects created a need for spiders to evolve new ways of catching food which couldn't be chased and so the earliest web weavers arose.

    Extractions: L et me tell you about some common spiders around where I live... The above mind-blowing picture is of one of the most abundant spiders in the US, a Wolf Spider of the genus Lycosa . Its body (excluding legs) is about 0.6 of an inch long. The drawing at the right helps you identify features on the Wolf Spider's face. The eight red circles are eyes, the pink ovals are the jaws (known technically as chelicerae ) and at the very bottom of the two jaws you can barely make out two sharp, horizontal items, and these are the fangs. The spider at the left is the same one shown above. Here you can see that the spider's rear end, her abdomen, is attached to an egg sac. Since Wolf Spiders have no webs, the mothers carry their egg sacs with them as shown. As young spiderlings hatch from the sac they climb onto their mother, who carries them on her back. At the right you see a member of the Lynx Spider family, the Oxyopidae . Probably it's the Green Lynx, Peucetia viridans . Lynx spiders, like wolf spiders, hunt prey, but instead of ranging across the ground they specialize in prowling vegetation. All are active during the daytime and with their 8 eyes have good vision. The Green Lynx's body is about 0.6 inch long.

Since I'm mentioned on the Internet as a spider specialist, some of the public inquiries come from distant places.

    Extractions: Information Sheets Many different kinds of spiders live in and around buildings. Some, such as garden and cellar spiders, construct webs to help entrap their prey. Others, including the wolf spiders, are free-roaming and make no webs. Most spiders are harmless and in fact are beneficial because they prey upon flies, crickets and other insects. They generally will not attempt to bite humans unless held or accidentally trapped. Moreover, the majority of spiders have fangs too small or weak to puncture human skin. Of the hundreds of species found in Kentucky, only the black widow and brown recluse are dangerous. Fortunately, both are relatively uncommon, and have markings which can be used to distinguish them from other non-threatening species. USDA Insect and Plant Disease Slide Set Of the spiders capable of inflicting a poisonous bite, black widows are the most notorious. The female is about 1/2-inch long, shiny black and usually has a red hourglass mark on the underside of the abdomen. In some varieties the hourglass mark may be reduced to two separate spots. Spiderlings and male spiders are smaller than the females and have several red dots on the abdomen’s upper side.

33. General Information About Project
    The intention is to expose students to the general principles of studying biodiversityin the field. The course will concentrate on spiders and others  
    http://research.amnh.org/entomology/blackrock2/project.htm
    
    Extractions: (Moscow) " Biodiversity of spiders of Black Rock Forest " PROJECT DESCRIPTION INTRODUCTION This project combines a research and educational approach to biodiversity studies looking in particular at the biodiversity of Black Rock Forest spiders. The project has two major parts, research and education. The first part of the project comprises a research study of the biodiversity of BRF spiders. Before our research the spider fauna of BRF was virtually unknown. Spiders are predators without a food specializations therefore they are excellent models for biodiversity research. Spiders occur in almost all ecosystems from deserts to mountain tops. In particular, forests have a more diverse spider fauna than most other ecosystems. Different species of spiders have very strong vertical preferences in a forest. Consequently, spiders occur at all levels from the soil, such as Atypidae, Lycosidae, Gnaphosidae (burrow dwelling or holes in the soil) to the canopy. At a State level the spiders of New York are very poorly known. The last list of New York State spiders was completed by Crosby and Bishop in 1928 and included 174 genera and 576 species. Kaston (1981) in his book "Spiders of Connecticut" recorded 184 genera and 462 species of spiders from Connecticut State, and 224 genera and 597 species with adjunct territories of Connecticut State (including the territory of New York east towards Hudson river). This example shows that the spider fauna of a much smaller state, Connecticut, is currently represented by more species than there are in the whole of New York State. Obviously, this poor state of knowledge needs to be addressed. As a result of our arachnological research in BRF, the first spider survey for the last 70 years, we found 290 species of spiders in BRF during the two years of the progect.

    Extractions: Spiders Order Araneae General Information on Spiders Spiders are the dominant ground-dwelling non-vertebrate predators in many ecosystems and they play a substantial role as biological regulators. They are worldwide in distribution, and include 109 families, 3471 genera and more than 37500 described species (Platnick, 2002). Spiders are widely distributed in North America, and are found in all climatic zones. Despite their substantial ecological role, North American spiders, and specially those of New York are not completely known. They have been so poorly studied in New York State that we are unable to properly evaluate the biodiversity of spiders in the State, or compare the fauna with that of others northern US states or Canada. For example, the last list of New York State spiders was completed by Crosby and Bishop in 1928. They included 174 genera and 576 species. However, Kaston in his book "Spiders of Connecticut" recorded 184 genera and 462 species of spiders from Connecticut. If the adjunct territories of Connecticut State (including territory of New York east to Hudson river are included the total rose to 224 genera and 597 species. Preliminary research was undertaken by us in BRF during 1997 and 1998. From May 1999 to July 2001 we collected spiders in BRF using a variety of collecting techniques, and almost all were identified. A total of 290 species of spiders were collected, belonging to 133 genera and 27 families. All this data is new, because the spider fauna of BRF has not been studied previously.

Spiders are fairly uniform in their general appearance (in most cases, apart from size, very like the example shown opposite) and are so well known to most people that there is probably little or no difficulty in their general recognition and overall distinction from most insects and other arthropods.
