Lynx spider (Oxyopidae) is a family of araneomorph spiders first described by Tamerlan Thorell in 1870. [1] Most species make little use of webs, instead spending their lives as hunting spiders on plants. Many species frequent flowers in particular, ambushing pollinators, much as crab spiders do. They tend to tolerate members of their own ...
This species is in the lynx spider family. Western lynx spider jumping. At least one jump was triggered by a fast flying insect approaching. Jumps are replayed in slow motion, This species is in the lynx spider family. Oxyopes scalaris, the western lynx spider, is a species of lynx spider in the family Oxyopidae. It is found in North America.
This page lists all described species of the spider family Oxyopidae accepted by the World Spider Catalog as of May 2024: [1] Hamadruas. Hamadruas. ...
The Haplogynae or haplogynes are one of the two main groups into which araneomorph spiders have traditionally been divided, the other being the Entelegynae. Morphological phylogenetic studies suggested that the Haplogynae formed a clade ; more recent molecular phylogenetic studies refute this, although many of the ecribellate haplogynes do ...
The ancestral (plesiomorphic) system is found in non-entelegyne spiders, where there is a single external genital opening in the female's abdomen. One or more males inject sperm from their palpal bulbs via this opening; the sperm is usually stored in special spermathecae (absent in some spiders, e.g. Pholcus). When eggs are released from the ...
Lycosoidea is a clade or superfamily of araneomorph spiders.The traditional circumscription was based on a feature of the eyes. The tapetum is a reflective layer at the back of the eye, thought to increase sensitivity in low light levels.

It is composed of 77 amino acid residues, and has molecular mass of 9,205 Da. It contains a single disulfide bond, Cys4-Cys10, at the N-terminal, which is different from any other spider toxin known so far. Further, unlike other arachnid toxins, Oxt-4a is very similar to defense peptides from the skin of frogs that contain the so-called Rana ...
