The taxonomy, biology and predation efficiency of lynx spider were studied. Top of Document Predation efficiency was studied in the laboratory. The study had a CRD design, with nine treatments and 10 replications. The treatments differed according to the growth stage, sex and density of the spiders. One treatment had young male spiders at an early growth stage (6.5 mm in length), one had young females (7.5 mm in length). Other treatments had 1, 2 or 3 males, or 1, 2 or 3 females per box. Spiders in each treatment were put in a plastic box (15x 29 x 8.5 cm) with seven-day-old mungbean seedlings. They were provided with 10 fruit flies (

49. FISH, A Quick Course On Ichthyology
    Basic introduction to fish biology, by Odyssey Expeditions Tropical Marine biology Voyages. Covers taxonomy, anatomy, reproduction, schooling behavior, how fish swim, how fish sense, and thermal strategies.  
    http://www.odysseyexpeditions.org/fish.asp
    
    Extractions: FISH : Any of a large group of cold-blooded, finned aquatic vertebrates. Fish are generally scaled and respire by passing water over gills.Modern fish are divided into three classes. I. AGNATHA, primitive jawless fish.Lampreys and Hagfish II. CHONDRICHTHYES, the jawed fish with cartilaginous skeletons. Sharks, Rays, Rat-Fishes III. OSTEICHTHYES, fish with bony skeletons.Lungfish, Trout, Bass, Salmon, Perch, Parrot Fish Fish come in all shapes and sizes, some are free swimming, while others rest on the bottom of the sea, some are herbivores and others are carnivores, and some lay eggs while others give live birth and parental care to their young. FISH: the members of a single species FISHES: more than one species of fish FISHES- class Agnatha Characteristics- agnatha FISH- class Chondrichthyes Members of the class Chondrichthyes ("cartilage-fish") include the sharks, skates, rays, and ratfish. These fish have a cartilaginous skeleton, but their ancestors were bony animals. These were the first fish to exhibit paired fins. Chondrichthyes lack swim bladders, have spiral valve intestines, exhibit internal fertilization, and posses 5-7 gill arches (most have 5). They have cartilaginous upper and loosely attached lower jaws with a significant array of teeth. Their skin is covered with teethlike denticles which gives it the texture and abrasive quality of sandpaper.

50. The Sciences Explorer - Taxonomy Table
    One of the most interesting fields of interest in the study of biology is taxonomy. Although there are other fields out there such as ecology and embryology  
    http://library.thinkquest.org/11771/english/hi/biology/taxonomy.shtml
    
    Extractions: This it the largest unit of classification. Initially it was thought that there were only two kingdoms, plants and animals. Eventually microscope and other tools helped clarify the existence of other organisms. Now, there are a total of 5 kingdoms. Animalia - the largest with over 1 million named species, fish, humans; Plantae - 350,000 species, trees, grass; Fungi - 100,000 species, mushrooms, lichen; Protista - 100,000 species, green, golden, brown, and red algae, flagellates; Monera - 10,000 species, blue-green algae or cyanobacteria. Phylum/Division The next most specific unit of classification. This further divides the kingdom into 20 or so divisions based on very distinct and defining characteristics. For example, within the Animal Kingdom, a major division is the chordates that are animals with notochords. This includes humans, fish, mammals, etc. Flowering plants are defined into the antrophyta division of the Plant Kingdom. Class This further classifies the organism. It separates them into categories that make them very similar in terms of certain basic features. For example the class mammalia includes all animals that breast-feed, which includes humans, cows, dolphins, etc. Another class would be reptilia which includes cold-blooded and scaled animals. Order Organisms of the same order are more similar that that of the same class. A lot of obvious evolutionary connections can be drawn from looking at the order; only a few features separate the organisms as a breaking in the evolutionary chain. One example is that within the class Mammalia, carnivores are separated into the order Carnivora while Insect-eaters are separated into the order Insectivora.

51. Gastropoda
    Overview of biology and taxonomy; species list for Montana.  
    http://www.esg.montana.edu/dlg/aim/mollusca/gastropd.html
    
    Extractions: Snails. The largest and most diverse group of mollusks. The phylum Mollusca in a ancient group that is second in size only to the arthropods. There are over 50,000 living species and about as many fossil species known. Mollusks are unsegmented, coelomate protostomes with a ventral muscular foot, a shell-secreting mantle, and a radula as the feeding organ. They have a trochophore larval stage similar to the annelids and a later veliger larval stage. The circulatory system is open and excretion is by metanephridia. Gastropods make up 70% of all mollusks and they are well represented in marine, freshwater and terrestrial habitats. About 500 species, 350 prosobranchs and 150 pulmonates, in the freshwaters of North America, north of Mexico. Mollusks with increased cephalization and an asymmetrical, univalved, usually spiral shell serving as a retreat rather than a shield. The class is characterized by torsion, a 180 degree counterclockwise rotation of the body behind the head. Marine forms have a free-swimming veliger larva, freshwater forms usually pass that stage within the egg and miniature adults emerge. Pulmonates are monoecious, copulation usually involves mutual sperm transfer, but it can be one-way only or they can be self-fertile. Freshwater prosobranchs are dioecious, except for Valvatidae. Some are parthenogenetic, some are egg brooders, some are both. Mating and egg laying may be seasonal or occur throughout much of the year. The species may be semelparous or iteroparous. Individuals of some species may live for several years. The life cycle is non-emergent.

52. Maryland Sea Grant Book Store - The Eastern Oyster: Crassostrea Virginica
    Information about the taxonomy and biology of this species from the Maryland Sea Grant.  
    http://www.mdsg.umd.edu/store/Oyster/
    
    Extractions: and Albert F. Eble, Editors Book, 772 pages, hard cover, 8-1/2" x 11", 400 photographs, drawings and diagrams. UM-SG-TS-96-01. ISBN 0-943-676-61-4. Price, $95.00 + $3.50 shipping and handling. The Eastern Oyster is the most comprehensive synthesis about the biology of Crassotrea virginica since Paul Galtsoff published his landmark work, The American Oyster , in 1964. The Eastern Oyster extends Galtsoff's findings and adds considerably to details on such topics as anatomy, shell structure, and predators and pests. Its major thrust, however, is holistic, reflecting current approaches to biological processes and covering topics that could not have been studied in such detail thirty years ago. Thus, there are intensive treatments of recent work in the physiology of feeding, population genetics, reproduction and larval biology, pollution and environmental effects, and diseases and mechanisms of defense. Concluding with discussions of the eastern oyster as a valuable ecological and commercial resource, several chapters address public management issues, aquaculture, and the effects of transferring oysters among ecosystems.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientific_classification
    
    Extractions: Scientific classification or biological classification is how biologists group and categorize extinct and living species of organisms . Modern classification has its roots in the system of Carolus Linnaeus , who grouped species according to shared physical characteristics. These groupings have been revised since Linnaeus to improve consistency with the Darwinian principle of common descent Molecular systematics , which uses genomic DNA analysis , has driven many recent revisions and is likely to continue to do so. Scientific classification belongs to the science of taxonomy or biological systematics edit The earliest known system of classifying forms of life comes from the Greek philosopher Aristotle , who classified animals based on their means of transportation (air, land, or water). In 1172 Ibn Rushd ( Averroes ), who was a judge (Qaadi) in Seville , translated and abridged Aristotle's book de Anima On Animals ) into Arabic. His original commentary is now lost, but its translation into Latin by

    Extractions: Skip to page content Skip to page content You are here: Primary navigation Chavarriella fallax , a member of the moth family Geometridae Our leading position in insect natural history, in both academic and applied fields, is based on the expertise of the staff, their use and development of the Museum's unrivalled collections of insects, mites and spiders, outstanding library resources, and modern laboratory facilities. The Museum's collection of insects and other terrestrial arthropods, including spiders, mites and myriapods, comprises about 28 million specimens. It is the most comprehensive in the world and includes named representatives of about half of the more than one million described species. About 100 research, curatorial, support staff and postgraduate students work regularly in the department. Our scientists use the collections and other resources, including the Museum's extensive libraries, in a wide range of research projects, covering many parts of the world. The Department is in the planning stages of its largest move in more than half a century. The present Entomology building will be razed to make way for the landmark Darwin Centre II on the same site, scheduled for completion in 2008. The new building will house the Entomology collections and portions of the Herbarium in vastly improved environmental conditions. There will also be state-of-the-art research and public access spaces. We are currently expecting to start moving out of the current Entomology building in mid-May2005 and to have completed moved out no later than the end of October 2005.

58. Introduction To The Myriapoda
    UCMP Berkeley's outline of myriapod history, biology and taxonomy.  
    http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/arthropoda/uniramia/myriapoda.html
    
    Extractions: Click on either of these images to view an enlarged version! Nearly 13,000 species of arthropod are classified in the Myriapoda, the "many-legged ones." All myriapods are terrestrial forms. Like insects and other uniramian arthropods, myriapods have appendages with only one branch, or ramus . Myriapods can have anywhere from fewer than ten to nearly 200 pairs of appendages; they range in size from nearly microscopic to 30 cm in length. Most myriapods live in humid environments, and can be found in soils, in leaf litters, or under stones and wood. Many species possess repugnatorial glands , specialized glands that secrete foul-tasing compounds and thus function in defense. There are four groups of myriapods; how they are related to each other is not yet well understood. Two of them, the Symphyla and Pauropoda , consist of tiny arthropods living in leaf litter and soil; both superficially resemble centipedes. The Chilopoda includes the true centipedes, like the one shown at the top left of this page. Chilopods have only one pair of legs per body segment. They are predators; the first pair of appendages on the trunk are modified into a pair of claws with poison glands, which centipedes use to capture prey (usually other arthropods). The bite of large centipedes can cause humans some pain and discomfort, although there are no authenticated cases of human fatalities from centipede bites.
