Overwintering of spiders in land-snail shells in South Moravia (Czech Republic)

Original language description

That spiders overwinter in land-snail shells is known, but the phenomenon has only rarely been studied. Anumber of published works from middle Europe address it, but none from the Czech Republic. The aim of this research is to find which spider species overwinter in empty land-snail shells in the xeric habitats of South Moravia (Czech Republic). During the winter of 2008/2009 we collected 2448 empty land-snail shells from 31 localities in South Moravian. The shells were the remains of three species fromthree genera (Cepea vindobonensis, Helix pomatia and Helicella sp.). We found a total of 185 spiders - 148 adults and juvenile spiders that were determinable (19 species and 9 families) and 37 juvenile spiders (determined to family or genus level only).We also found six species that feature in the Red List of threatened species in the Czech Republic (four classified as vulnerable species and two as endangered). The most important record is of one juvenile gnaphosid Phaeocedus braccatus
