Chanbria
''Chanbria'' is a genus of camel spiders. It consists of four species found in the Sonoran Desert in Mexico and the southwestern United States. Taxonomy American arachnologist created this genus in 1951. He wrote the generic name (biology), generic name, ''Chanbria'', was an "arbitrary combination of letters based on an anagram of the name Branch", referring to Jefferson H. Branch; Branch had collected the holotype for the type species. Muma did not explicitly designate a grammatical gender, gender, but Australian arachnologist Mark S. Harvey notes that Muma used masculine endings for species in this genus. Muma's 1951 circumscription (taxonomy), circumscription included two newly described species, the type species ''C. regalis'' and ''C. serpentinus''. In 1962, he described two additional species: ''C. rectus'' and ''C. tehachapianus''. In 1970, Muma grouped the four ''Chanbria'' species into two species groups: the ''regalis''-group (''C. rectus'', ''C. regalis'', and ''C. t ...

Solifugae
Solifugae is an order of animals in the class Arachnida known variously as camel spiders, wind scorpions, sun spiders, or solifuges. The order includes more than 1,000 described species in about 147 genera. Despite the common names, they are neither true scorpions (order Scorpiones), nor true spiders (order Araneae). Most species of Solifugae live in dry climates and feed opportunistically on ground-dwelling arthropods and other small animals. The largest species grow to a length of , including legs. A number of urban legends exaggerate the size and speed of the Solifugae, and their potential danger to humans, which is negligible. Anatomy Solifuges are moderately small to large arachnids (a few millimeters to several centimeters in body length), with the larger species reaching in length, including legs. In practice, the respective lengths of the legs of various species differ drastically, so the resulting figures are often misleading. More practical measurements refer primari ...

Eremobates
''Eremobates'' is a genus of arachnids of the order Solifugae. About 2 inches long, these fast-moving arachnids have the largest jaw size to body ratio of any animal. They are not venomous, but have a remarkably powerful bite. Often hunting at night, they have poor eyesight and navigate mostly by use of a pair of pedipalps. They are solitary creatures, coming together only to mate, the male using his pedipalps to transfer seminal fluid to the female, which buries between 50 and 200 eggs Humans and human ancestors have scavenged and eaten animal eggs for millions of years. Humans in Southeast Asia had domesticated chickens and harvested their eggs for food by 1,500 BCE. The most widely consumed eggs are those of fowl, especial ... in the ground. The female stays with the young until they are mature enough to hunt and defend themselves, feeding and caring for them. Species of the genus ''Eremobates'' are generally found in the western United States, and at northern en ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
