Biotopical distribution and seasonal activity of model species of the family Gnaphosidae (Araneae) in Zemen gorge (SW Bulgaria)
Gnaphosidae; biotopical distribution; seasonal activity
Abstract
A faunistic study was carried out for three years in Zemen gorge (1984-1986). With the help of Barber-traps 675 gnaphosid spiders were caught in 4 localities, each with 2 habitats, meadow and forest. 23 species were found in total and their biotopical distribution was recorded. The investigated habitats are faunistically similar, mainly in qualitative respect. In addition data about the phenology of the most frequent species are presented. The males are most abundant in spring and summer and disappear in VIII, the females are most numerous after VII and can be found till the end of IX, whereas the juveniles can be found till the end of X. The species abundance reaches its peak in V-VI.
Spinnen aus Malaisefallen
Spiders from Malaise traps
Araneae; trapping technique
Abstract
The spider fauna of the higher vegetation strata is by far less well investigated than the bulk of epigeic spiders. The present paper refers to spiders collected in Malaise traps that were used during an insect sampling program in Brandenburg (Germany) in 1992-1993. In spite of a rather unusual sampling technique for spiders, the species report presented might add to our knowledge useful data on arboricolous spiders.
