Bumba (spider)
''Bumba'' is a genus of tarantula native to the Americas. It is an uncommon genus, comprising eight known species, including one named after John Lennon. Like most related species in the subfamily Theraphosinae, they may flick urticating hairs in response to threats. Diagnosis They can be distinguished by the type 5 urticating hairs, and the palpal bulb resting in a "ventral distal excavation" of the pedipalp's tibia. The metatarsus number 1 passes between two branches of the tibial apophysis when flexed and the presence of spine like hairs on the maxillae and coxae 1 through 4. Taxonomy The genus was first described in 2000 by Fernando Pérez-Miles under the name ''Iracema''; however this name was already in use for a genus of freshwater fish, so in 2005, Pérez-Miles proposed the replacement name ''Maraca''. However, this too was already in use (for a species of cockroach) and in 2014 the replacement name ''Bumba'' was put forward by Pérez-Miles, Bonaldo & Miglio. Etymo ...

World Spider Catalog
The World Spider Catalog (WSC) is an online searchable database concerned with spider taxonomy. It aims to list all accepted families, genera and species, as well as provide access to the related taxonomic literature. The WSC began as a series of individual web pages in 2000, created by Norman I. Platnick of the American Museum of Natural History. After Platnick's retirement in 2014, the Natural History Museum of Bern (Switzerland) took over the catalog, converting it to a relational database. , 50,151 accepted species were listed. The order Araneae Spiders (order Araneae) are air-breathing arthropods that have eight legs, chelicerae with fangs generally able to inject venom, and spinnerets that extrude silk. They are the largest order of arachnids and rank seventh in total species dive ... (spiders) has the seventh-most species of all orders. The existence of the World Spider Catalog makes spiders the largest taxon with an online listing that is updated regularly. It ha ...

Theraphosidae
Tarantulas comprise a group of large and often hairy spiders of the family Theraphosidae. , 1,040 species have been identified, with 156 genera. The term "tarantula" is usually used to describe members of the family Theraphosidae, although many other members of the same infraorder (Mygalomorphae) are commonly referred to as "tarantulas" or "false tarantulas". Some of the more common species have become popular in the exotic pet trade. Many New World species kept as pets have setae known as urticating hairs that can cause irritation to the skin, and in extreme cases, cause damage to the eyes. Overview Like all arthropods, the tarantula is an invertebrate that relies on an exoskeleton for muscular support.Pomeroy, R. (2014, February 4). Pub.

Nomen Dubium
In binomial nomenclature, a ''nomen dubium'' (Latin for "doubtful name", plural ''nomina dubia'') is a scientific name that is of unknown or doubtful application. Zoology In case of a ''nomen dubium'' it may be impossible to determine whether a specimen belongs to that group or not. This may happen if the original type series (i. e. holotype, isotype, syntype or paratype) is lost or destroyed. The zoological and botanical codes allow for a new type specimen, or neotype, to be chosen in this case. A name may also be considered a ''nomen dubium'' if its name-bearing type is fragmentary or lacking important diagnostic features (this is often the case for species known only as fossils). To preserve stability of names, the ''International Code of Zoological Nomenclature'' allows a new type specimen, or neotype, to be chosen for a ''nomen dubium'' in this case. 75.5. Replacement of unidentifiable name-bearing type by a neotype. When an author considers that the taxonomic identity of a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Bumba Tapajos
''Bumba tapajos'' is a tarantula in the genus '' Bumba''. It was first described by Lucas, Passanha and Brescovit in 2020. The species is named after where it was found, in the Tapajós area in Brazil. Description Its color has only been described in ethanol. The cephalothorax and legs are red brown, the abdomen dorsally black and ventrally grayish. Its male palpal bulb has the embolus shorter than the tegulum.

In this area average annual rainfall is 1,820 millimetres, and the temperatures range from 21 to 31 °C. The forest along the banks of the Tapajós has elevations of about 100m above sea level. Further from the river the forest is on the Tapajós-Xingu plateau, with elevations of 120m to 170m above sea level Height above mean sea level is a measure of the vertical distance (height, elevation or altitude) of a location in reference to a historic mean se ...

Bumba Lennoni
''Bumba lennoni'' is a species of tarantula found in 2015 in Caxiuanã National Forest. It is about one inch long, small for a tarantula but is closely related to the largest spider in the world. Origins This spider lives in northern Brazil, and is named after John Lennon "the legendary creator of The Beatles, who contributed to make this world a gentler place". Like all tarantulas, the lennon tarantula's ancestors diverged from a common ancestor with the normal, web-spinning spider perhaps 350 million years ago. Biology Though very small (about 1 inch), this tarantula shares its genus with relatively large b. horrida, with a five-inch legspan, and has many traits that imply it is closely related to ''Theraphosa blondi'' the Goliath birdeater The Goliath birdeater (''Theraphosa blondi'') belongs to the tarantula family Theraphosidae. Found in northern South America, it is the largest spider in the world by mass () and body length (up to ), and second to the giant huntsman sp ...

Bumba Horrida
''Bumba horrida'' is a medium-large species of tarantula (about ) found in northern Brazil, like the three other species in its small genus. It is thought to be rather shy, and was discovered relatively recently. Natural history Like all tarantulas, the horrida's ancestors diverged from a common ancestor with the normal, web-spinning spider perhaps 350 million years ago. This spider is shares its genus to the tiny () ''b. lennoni'', the John Lennon tarantula, and has many traits that imply it is closely related to ''Theraphosa blondi'' the Goliath birdeater spider, largest known extant spider speciesThough not particularly large—its body is about 1.3 inches (34 millimeters) wide—the newfound arachnid belongs to the same family as the dinner-plate-size Theraphosa blondi, the world's largest spider.
