Escadabiidae
Escadabiidae is a small neotropical family of the harvestman infraorder Grassatores with six described species. (2007): Escadabiidae Kury & Pérez in Kury, 2003. In: Pinto-da-Rocha ''et al.'' 2007: 191ff Description Escadabiidae are about three millimeters long, with short legs and weak chelicerae. Distribution All known members of this group are endemic to Brazil. The as yet undescribed species in this family expand the range to the coast of Ceará State and caves in the dry central part of Minas Gerais, where the cave-dwelling species could represent an example of relictual distribution. Relationships Escadabiidae are possibly the sister group to Kimulidae. Name The name of the type genus ''Escadabius'' is combined from the type locality Escada (Pernambuco, Brazil) and Ancient Greek ''bios'' "living". Species * '' Baculigerus'' H. E. M.

Kimulidae
Kimulidae is a small neotropical family of the harvestman infraorder Grassatores with about thirty described species. (2007): Kimulidae. Kury & Pérez in Kury, 2003. In: Pinto-da-Rocha ''et al.'' 2007: 207ff Description These brown harvestmen dwell in soil and litter. Distribution Whereas most species occur in Venezuela, Colombia and the West Indies, the isolated species ''Tegipiolus pachypus'' (which was formerly in Zalmoxidae) is found in northeastern Brazil. This species also differs from the others morphologically. Another Brazilian species, ''Microminua soerenseni'' Rio de Janeiro, does not belong to this family.Kury 2003 Relationships Kimulidae are probably closely related to Escadabiidae. Name This family was originally called Minuidae, but as the name of the type genus proved invalid, the family name needed a replacement.

Opiliones
The Opiliones (formerly Phalangida) are an order of arachnids colloquially known as harvestmen, harvesters, harvest spiders, or daddy longlegs. , over 6,650 species of harvestmen have been discovered worldwide, although the total number of extant species may exceed 10,000. The order Opiliones includes five suborders: Cyphophthalmi, Eupnoi, Dyspnoi, Laniatores, and Tetrophthalmi, which were named in 2014. Representatives of each extant suborder can be found on all continents except Antarctica. Well-preserved fossils have been found in the 400-million-year-old Rhynie cherts of Scotland, and 305-million-year-old rocks in France. These fossils look surprisingly modern, indicating that their basic body shape developed very early on, and, at least in some taxa, has changed little since that time. Their phylogenetic position within the Arachnida is disputed; their closest relatives may be the mites (Acari) or the Novogenuata (the Scorpiones, Pseudoscorpiones, and Solifugae). Althou ...

Samooidea
Samooidea is a large superfamily in the Grassatores group of harvestmen. It includes around 380 species distributed throughout the tropics. They are characterized by the complex male genitalia, with eversible complementary sclerites. The Samooidea are closely related to Zalmoxoidea, although the exact relationships are not yet understood. Families included * Biantidae Thorell, 1889 * Escadabiidae Kury & Pérez, 2003 * Kimulidae Pérez, Kury & Alonso-Zarazaga, 2007 * Podoctidae Roewer, 1912 * Samoidae Samoidae is a family of the harvestman infraorder Grassatores with about fifty described species.

Pernambuco
Pernambuco () is a state of Brazil, located in the Northeast region of the country. With an estimated population of 9.6 million people as of 2020, making it seventh-most populous state of Brazil and with around 98,148 km², being the 19th-largest in area among federative units of the country, it is the sixth-most densely populated with around 89 people per km². Its capital and largest city, Recife, is one of the most important economic and urban hubs in the country. Based on 2019 estimates, the Recife Metropolitan Region is seventh-most populous in the country, and the second-largest in northeastern Brazil. In 2015, the state had 4.6% of the national population and produced 2.8% of the national gross domestic product (GDP). The contemporary state inherits its name from the Captaincy of Pernambuco, established in 1534. The region was originally inhabited by Tupi-Guarani-speaking peoples. European colonization began in the 16th century, under mostly Portuguese rule in ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
