Extractions: Have you seen the The Amazing World of Birds Yet Just remember.............eight legs is cool !!!!!!!! The Class Arachnida are the most familiar of the Arthropods outside of the ever-present insects, there are over 71 000 named species and they are united by the possession of eight legs, the lack of biting and chewing mouthparts (food is ingested in most cases as a liquid, though some help is often given the food in becoming liquid by the secretion of, or regurgitating onto or into the food of digestive enzymes from the stomach. The Class Arachnida is divided into 11 subclasses, of which the Araneae (spiders) and the Scorpiones (scorpions) are the best known, and the Acari or Acarina (mites) are the most economically important.

Arachnid, term for animals in the class including the scorpions, spiders, daddy longlegs, mites, and ticks, and certain other eight-legged land invertebrates. Fossils suggest that arachnids were among the first animals to live on land, perhaps in the early Devonian Period, nearly 400 million years ago. About 60,000 species are known, although many, especially mites, remain undiscovered or undescribed. Arachnids are found throughout the world in nearly every habitat, but they reach their greatest size and diversity in warm arid and tropical regions. Characteristics The arachnid body is divided into two parts: anterior and posterior. The anterior part, called the cephalothorax, contains sense organs, mouthparts, and limbs in pairs. The first pair of limbs-the chelicerae-may form pincers or poison fangs, and the second pair-the pedipalps-may serve as pincers, feelers, or legs. The other limb pairs, generally four, are used for walking. The posterior part of the body, the abdomen, bears the genital opening and other structures. It is usually equipped with modified gills called book lungs. Most arachnids are solitary except at the time of mating, when a variety of complex behavior patterns may be observed. Females may guard eggs or young, which are often born live. Behavior and Importance Arachnids are usually predaceous. Often they hunt or lie in wait for small animals such as insects. Food may be partly or wholly broken down by secreted fluids and then sucked in. Arachnids have simple eyes and various prey-subduing structures, such as the segmented, stinging tail of scorpions and the abdominal spinnerets with which spiders construct elaborate insect traps (orbs or webs). Mites constitute the largest and most diverse order of arachnids, followed by the spiders. Some mites feed on plants and a few species are serious agricultural pests. Some are predaceous, often feeding on other species of mites. Parasitic lifestyles are common among mites and many are of veterinary and medical importance. Ticks are a distinct bloodsucking subgroup of mites specialized for parasitizing reptiles, birds, and mammals. Ticks carry organisms that cause serious human diseases, such as Lyme Disease.

Extractions: All images were optimized and now navigation is faster. If you like real insects, you would love virtual insects because you can see them big without a microscope. Virtual insects are clean and have no smell, they will not bite or sting you. And some times they look even better than real insects. Besides learning insects, you will learn new computer technology which is called virtual reality. Virtual reality is a computer interface that maximizes our natural perception abilities. Static two-dimensional images are often deceiving; it may be hard to reconstruct scales and distances between objects. Thus, it is important to implement the third dimension and to bring depth to objects. There are two major components of three-dimensional virtual reality:

http://www.kidport.com/RefLib/Science/Animals/Arachnids.htm

Extractions: Arachnids are a type of arthropod. You know many of them as spiders. Like other arthropods, the arachnids have a hard exoskeleton and jointed appendages for walking. Unlike other arthropods, arachnids do not have antennae. Common arachnids are the spider, scorpions, ticks and mites. Invertebrate Animals Vertebrate Animals The Animal Kingdom Web Links ... Science Main Index Spiders have 8 appendages. The first pair are used for holding the prey and feeding. The second pair may also be used for holding and killing their prey. The others are used as legs for walking. Most spiders also have 8 eyes. Spiders have fangs that are used to inject poison to paralyze or kill their prey. Many spiders can produce silk threads to spin webs for catching prey, and for building cocoons for their eggs. Scorpions are the largest arachnids, some reaching over 8 inches in length. They have 6 to 12 appendages. They also have a sharp stinger at the end of their tail which is used to paralyze or kill insects and small animals. Mites and ticks are small arachnids that are parasites living on the blood and tissue fluid of other animals. They can occasionally transmit disease.

Extractions: biodiversity explorer Collectors of insects and arachnids in Africa A B C D ... Z Special feature Idlewild An account by A.D. Izard of an expedition he went on with K.H. Barnard C.W. Thorne and Mr Cameron to the Langeberg Mountains in the Riversdale vicinity of the Western Cape, South Africa. This site arose from a project instigated by the Biosystematics Interest Group of the Entomological Society of southern Africa in 1993. Originally, the aim was to cover only the deceased collectors but I have expanded the scope to include living collectors as well. This makes the project much larger but makes the information much more useful. The first version of this site appeared on the web site of the Entomological Society of southern Africa. Despite having a stated scope covering the whole of Africa, this site is currently devoted almost entirely to those people who have collected insects and arachnids in southern Africa. Even here, the coverage is far from complete. With time we would like to build up this site steadily and include people who have collected insects elsewhere in Africa. The information comes from the following sources: List of collectors in the National Museum, Bloemfontein, supplied by John Irish (only people who collected more than 10 specimens have been included).
Arachnids
arachnids are the group of arthropods that include spiders, scorpions, ticksand mites. All arachnids have eight legs. Spiders are arachnids.
http://atschool.eduweb.co.uk/sirrobhitch.suffolk/key/spiders.htm

Extractions: Arachnids are the group of arthropods that include spiders, scorpions, ticks and mites. All arachnids have eight legs. Arachnids evolved about 500 million years ago. That's about 50, 000 times longer than humans have been on earth. Spiders are arachnids. Their bodies are in two parts, the head and the abdomen. They do not have feelers. Most spiders have eight eyes, but some have six, four or two. Many spiders trap their food in webs. Not all spiders make webs. Some are hunters. Some spiders dig homes under the ground. Some spiders can live most of their lives under water in bubble webs. Some spiders have claws at the end of each leg. Spiders live in all sorts of environments. Scorpions and spiders are predators of other insects. Not all scorpions, and very few spiders, are dangerous to man. All scorpions have: a sting, which they use to subdue prey; pincers, which they also use to subdue and to handle prey. There are far more species of ticks and mites than other orders of arachnids. Ticks and mites are mostly parasitic; scorpions and spiders are not. Where can I find out more information about arachnids?
