I was studying the behavioral ecology of spider wasps of the genus Pepsis and their interactions with their large theraphosid (tarantula) spider hosts, in the Chihuahuan Desert near Big Bend National Park, Texas. I was monitoring a particular tarantula burrow one night when I noticed the resident female crawl up into the burrow entrance. Hoping to take some photographs of prey capture, I placed a cricket near the entrance and waited for the spider to pounce. Suddenly, out of the comer of my eye appeared a large, rapidly moving yellowish form which siezed the cricket and quickly ran off with it until it disappeared beneath a nearby mesquite bush. So suddenly and quickly had the sequence of events occurred, that I found myself momentarily startled. With the aid of a headlamp I soon located the intruder, a solifuge, who was already busy at work macerating the insect with its large chelicerae (jaws). When I attempted to nudge it with the edge of my forceps, it quickly moved to another location beneath the bush. When I repeated this maneuver, the solifuge dropped the cricket | | 出版日期 | Book 1998 | | 关键词 | anatomy; arachnid; biology; ecology; phylogeny; physiology; taxonomy | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4615-5727-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4613-7623-1 | | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4615-5727-2 | | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media New York 1998 |
