BEHAVIORAL NICHE PARTITIONING IN EMBLYNA FRANCISCA AND EMBLYNA RETICULATA (ARANEAE, DICTYNIDAE)
Abstract I investigated behavioral niche partitioning in two morphologically similar and sympatric Emblyna spiders by collecting webs of Emblyna francisca and Emblyna reticulata from Sambucus and Atriplex plants at the Panorama Vista Preserve in Kern County, California. I measured web heights and identified prey found in webs to compare web placement and prey distributions in each habitat. Emblyna francisca webs contained more prey than did E. reticulata webs in both habitats. The two spiders had similar abundance in Atriplex, but in Sambucus, E. reticulata was more abundant than E. francisca. Emblyna reticulata placed its webs higher than E. francisca in Atriplex but not in Sambucus, and the distribution of prey in webs differed between the two spiders in Sambucus, but not in Atriplex.
期刊介绍:
The Southwestern Naturalist (a publication of the Southwestern Association of Naturalists since 1953) is an international journal (published quarterly) that reports original and significant research in any field of natural history. This journal promotes the study of plants and animals (living and fossil) in the multinational region that includes the southwestern United States, Mexico, and Central America. Appropriate submission of manuscripts may come from studies conducted in the countries of focus or in regions outside this area that report significant findings relating to biota occurring in the southwestern United States, Mexico, and Central America. Publication is in English, and manuscripts may be feature articles or notes. Feature articles communicate results of completed scientific investigations, while notes are reserved for short communications (e.g., behavioral observations, range extensions, and other important findings that do not in themselves constitute a comprehensive study). All manuscripts (feature articles and notes) require an abstract in both English and Spanish.
