Environmental and overwintering conditions of Pellenes spp. (Araneae: Salticidae)
Original language description
The research consisted of two parts. In the first part, the influence of the microclimate of hibernating hiding place (shade of shells) on the gregarious hibernation was solved and thus possible explanation of the formation of unusual social behaviour in these predatory species. In the second part, the presence/absence of spider species of interest - Pellenes tripunctatus (Walckenaer, 1802) and P. nigrociliatus (Simon, 1875) were observed at localities without calcareous bedrock, respectively without natural presence of gastropods by using scattered empty shells. The results showed that P. nigrociliatus also occurs at localities with acidic bedrock (27.59% occupancy of shells). It is interesting that individuals overwintered in larger shells of Caucasotachea vindobonensis (Férussac, 1821) despite the more frequent overwintering and affinity to the shell of Xerolenta obvia (Menke, 1828), what is mentioned in previous works. Up to 59.38% of individuals chose a larger shell. It has not been confirmed that the microclimate of shells affects group wintering. The white shells were the most inhabited (25.74%), but mainly by one individual, the brown shells were the least inhabited (17.61%). Regarding to gregarious hibernation, uncoloured shells were the most inhabited (20.65%). The highest number in the group of overwintering individuals was six individuals of P. tripunctatus.
