Seasonal variations in body melanism and size of the wolf spider Pardosa astrigera (Araneae: Lycosidae)
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Ecology and Evolution"
DOI: 10.1002/ece3.3988
Abstract: Abstract Variations in species morphology and life‐history traits strongly correlate with geographic and climatic characteristics. Most studies on morphological variations in animals focus on ectotherms distributed on a large geographic scale across latitudinal and/or altitudinal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10905-018-9691-z
Abstract: Chemical cues from predators (kairomones) are used by many aquatic and terrestrial animals when deciding on behavioral responses to predation threats. These responses may also be affected by the animal’s physiological state (e.g., nutrition level,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11356-022-18548-w
Abstract: Cadmium (Cd) pollution is a serious heavy metal pollution in paddy fields, but its effect and underlying mechanism on soil arthropod overwintering and cold resistance are still unclear. In the present study, adult females of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.beproc.2019.103921
Abstract: In a mating system in which females are monandrous and males are polygynous, females may incur a risk by mating with males with possible sperm depletion following consecutive matings. Here, we examined the effects of… read more here.

Behaviors associated with mating success in the “purring” wolf spider Gladicosa gulosa
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Ethology"
DOI: 10.1111/eth.12661
Abstract: Studies of sexual selection in animal systems frequently use courtship and receptivity behaviors as metrics for mating success, and this is generally built upon data associating such behaviors with mating. Spider systems are becoming increasingly… read more here.
