The social spider Mallos gregalis is arrested by ether-soluble components of silk of conspecifics (Jackson, 1982). However, courtship behavior is not released by female silk (Jackson, 1978), in contrast to the behavior seen with silk of female Mallos trivittata (as trivittatus) silk. Male silk is inactive (Jackson, 1978). Coelotes terrestris males recognized female silk or a substratum on which females had been running (Roland, 1984) and males also exhibited courtship on empty female webs (Krafft, 1978). Courtship behavior, mainly vibratory signals in empty female webs, has also been observed in Amaurobius similis and Amaurobius fenestralis. This behavior is only performed on conspecific webs. A third species, Amaurobius ferox, exhibited no responses to silk cues (Krafft, 1978). [Pg.126]

In the social species Agelena consociata, silk galleries and cocoons are attractive to conspecifics. Trail following on silk was also observed (Krafft, 1970, 1971). Furthermore, conspecifics washed with ethanol and diethyl ether were attacked as prey, whereas intact spiders or vibrating lures covered with extracts were not (Krafft, 1974). [Pg.126]

One of the best documented examples of aggressive non-social arthropod mimicry is that of bolas spiders that use the female sex pheromones of their lepidopteran hosts, mostly noctuids, to attract moth males. In their study on the moth Tetanolita mynesalis, i.e., the... [Pg.287]

Consider a race of spider-beings named Mygalomorphs who spend their days spinning webs upon circular frames. Status in their society is based on the beauty of their webs. To create the web patterns, the spiders string a straight piece of web from one point on the circle to another. Usually the patterns are dull and uninspiring, and therefore most spiders are relegated to lower social classes. [Pg.79]

Like Superman and Captain America before him, Spider-Man be=came a cultural icon for his era. Somehow the figure of an angst-ridden, quasi-nuclear costumed hero answered a variety of social needs. In one tale, the hero has to borrow bus fare to track down the villain. By the mid-1970s, Spider-Man sales had topped even those of Superman. In 1965, Esquire magazine noted that Spider-Man s image was as popular in radical campus circles as that of revolutionary leader Che Guevara. [Pg.119]

A relationship similar to that between tyrosine and dopamine exists between the amino-acid tryptophan and the brain substance serotonin or 5-hydroxytryptamine (Figure 8.9). Tryptamine is known in the venom of scorpions, while serotonin is found widely in the venom of honeybees, centipedes, and at least two spiders. Serotonin is not found in the venom of ants or solitary wasps but social wasps have it in quantity, as much as 1 pg per insect. It is present in the barbs of the larvae of the Tiger moth Arctia caja (Plate 11) and a satumid butterfly larva. Their origins in insect venoms are presumably from phenylalanine but this has not been proven. The same substance is in the hairs of the common stinging nettle Urtica dioica. [Pg.128]
