Spider
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 diversity among all orders of organisms. Spiders are found worldwide on every continent except for Antarctica, and have become established in nearly every land habitat. , 50,356 spider species in 132 families have been recorded by taxonomists. However, there has been debate among scientists about how families should be classified, with over 20 different classifications proposed since 1900. Anatomically, spiders (as with all arachnids) differ from other arthropods in that the usual body segments are fused into two tagmata, the cephalothorax or prosoma, and the opisthosoma, or abdomen, and joined by a small, cylindrical pedicel, however, as there is currently neither paleontological nor embryological evidence that spiders ever had ...

Cheiracanthium
''Cheiracanthium'', commonly called ''yellow sac spiders'', is a genus of Araneomorphae, araneomorph spiders in the family Cheiracanthiidae, and was first described by Carl Ludwig Koch in 1839. They are usually pale in colour, and have an spider anatomy#Abdomen, abdomen that can range from yellow to beige. Both sexes range in size from . They are unique among common house spiders because their tarsus (arthropod), tarsi do not point either outward, like members of ''Tegenaria'', or inward, like members of ''Araneus''), making them easier to identify. The name is a reference to the backwardly directed process on the cymbium of the male palp. The species epithet is derived from the Greek grc, wikt:χείρ, χείρ, cheir, meaning "hand", and ''Acanthium'', a genus of thorny-stemmed plants. Venom Though they are beneficial predators in agricultural fields, they are also known to be mildly venomous to humans. Painful bites may be incurred from species such as ''Cheiracanthium pu ...

Cheiracanthiidae
''Cheiracanthiidae'' is a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Vladimir Wagner in 1887. The synonym Eutichuridae was used for a long time, but Cheiracanthiidae has priority. The largest genus currently recognized as belonging to this family is ''Cheiracanthium'', which has previously been placed in both the Clubionidae and the Miturgidae. Taxonomy It was recognized as a synonym of "Eutichuridae" in 2009, but was in danger of becoming obsolete until it was resurrected in 2011. The group was originally described as the subfamily Eutichurinae of the family Miturgidae by Pekka T. Lehtinen in 1967. The monophyly of the group is described as "reasonably uncontroversial", but it has been placed in either the Miturgidae or the Clubionidae. An analysis by Martín J. Ramírez in 2014 suggested that it was better considered as a separate family. Genera , the World Spider Catalog accepts the following genera: *'' Calamoneta'' Deeleman-Reinhold, 2001 — Indonesia *'' Calamopu ...

Barychelidae
Barychelidae, also known as brushed trapdoor spiders, is a spider family with about 300 species in 42 genera. Most spiders in this family build trapdoor burrows. For example, the long ''Sipalolasma'' builds its burrow in rotted wood, with a hinged trapdoor at each end. The long '' Idioctis'' builds its burrow approximately deep, just below the high tide level, sealing the opening with a thin trapdoor. Some species avoid flooding by plugging their burrows, while others can avoid drowning by trapping air bubbles within the hairs covering their bodies. Some members of this group have a rake on the front surface of their chelicerae used for compacting burrow walls. These spiders can run up glass like tarantulas, and some can stridulate, though it isn't audible to humans. Distribution Barychelids are found in Australia, New Caledonia, South America, Africa, Madagascar, India, New Guinea, and Pacific islands. Genera , the World Spider Catalog accepts the following genera: *'' Ammo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Oxyopes Rutilus
''Oxyopes'' is a genus of lynx spiders found worldwide. It includes arounds 300 species and is classified under the lynx spider family Oxyopidae. Like other lynx spiders, they are easily recognizable by the six larger eyes arranged hexagonally on top of the head (prosoma), with the remaining smaller two eyes in front. They are also characterized by long spine-like bristles (setae) on their legs. They are ambush predators, actively hunting prey by sight. Though they produce and use silk, they do not build webs to capture prey. The genus was first established in 1804 by the French zoologist Pierre André Latreille. The generic name means "keen-eyed", from Ancient Greek ὀξύς (''oxús'', "sharp") and ὤψ (''ṓps'', "eye"). Species Species classified under ''Oxyopes'' (including subspecies) and their distribution ranges are the following: * '' Oxyopes abebae'' Strand, 1906 — Ethiopia, East Africa * '' Oxyopes acleistus'' Chamberlin, 1929 — USA, Mexico * ...
