All You Need to Know About Spiders

All You Need to Know About Spiders Spiders are super predators and devour everything they can overpower. To do this, they have developed incredibly good catching techniques and, with spider silk, a tool that makes material technology green with envy. The males are usually smaller than the females and, in order to have sex, they have to come up with a lot to avoid being misunderstood as easy prey: Dancing, drumming, and gifts almost always help. Spiders use their venom in very precise doses, and since humans are not on their menu, they are harmless to us. Many people's (unnecessary) fear of spiders finds cultural roots as early as the Middle Ages. Nevertheless, spider fear is easily treatable...

Hausspinnen weltweit

Spinnen, die als Untermieter in unseren Häusern vorkommen, werden meist ignoriert und gelegentlich (zu Unrecht) gefürchtet. Es dürfte weltweit kaum ein Gebäude geben, in dem nicht einige Spinnenarten vorkommen. Faszinierend daran ist, dass es immer wieder die gleichen Arten sind. Sie verfügen über besondere Anpassungen, denn die Luftfeuchtigkeit ist viel zu gering, es ist zu sauber und das Nahrungsangebot ist knapp. Wer aber den Sprung in unsere vier Wände geschafft hat, wird mit einem globalen Bleiberecht belohnt. Das liegt an der weltweiten Handels- und Migrationsfreudigkeit der Menschen: Sie transportieren einen unendlichen Strom von Waren um die Welt. Und unsere Hausspinnen reisen unerkannt mit. Es ist daher möglich, die weltweit anzutreffenden Hausspinnen in einem einzigen Buch vorzustellen, denn es sind überall weitgehend die gleichen. Die rund 50 wichtigsten Arten und Artengruppen werden mit einem ausführlichen Steckbrief, Fotos und Verbreitungskarten in allgemeinverständlicher Weise vorgestellt.

Myriapods are the only major zoological group for which a modern encyclopedic treatment has never been produced. In particular, this was the single major gap in the largest zoological treatise of the XIX century (Grassé’s Traité de Zoologie), whose publication has recently been stopped. The two volumes of “The Myriapoda” fill that gap with an updated treatment in the English language. Volume II deals with the Diplopoda or millipedes. As in the previous volume, the treatment is articulated in chapters dealing with external and internal morphology, physiology, reproduction, development, distribution, ecology, phylogeny and taxonomy. All currently recognized suprageneric taxa and a very large selection of the genera are considered. All groups and features are extensively illustrated by line drawings and micrographs and living specimens of representative species of the main groups are presented in color photographs.
