- spinnerets and silk glands
- spin webs
7ArachnidaOrder Araneae
8ArachnidaOrder Scorpionidascorpions
- poison stinger at end of abdomen
- Lots of segmentation indicates primitive group
9ArachnidaOrder Opiliones
- harvestmen, daddy longlegs
- abdomen and cephalothorax broadly joined
10ArachnidaOrder Acarina
- Mites and ticks
- Many facultative parasites, other free living
11ArachnidaOrder Pseudoscorpiones
- false scorpions
- Most predators in forest litter
- Some commensals on birds and large insects
12Phylum ArthropodaSubphylum Crustacea
13Subphylum Crustacea
- body is divided into 3 main parts
- Head
- Thorax
- abdomen
- in advanced forms head and thorax are united into
a Cephalothorax and covered with a Carapace
14Subphylum Crustacea
- Main characteristics include
- 2 pairs of antennae
15Subphylum Crustacea
- Main characteristics include
- biramous appendages divided into exopod and
endopod distally
16Subphylum Crustacea
- Main characteristics include
- life long molting
procuticle exocuticle endocuticle
Epicuticle
Procuticle
Epidermis
17Subphylum Crustacea
- Main characteristics include
- respiration usually by gills dorsal heart and
blood vessels
18Subphylum Crustacea
- Main characteristics include
- primitive forms appendages have little
specialization -
Fairy shrimp
- advanced forms appendages specialized
- for
- Feeding
- Locomotion
- reproduction
shrimp
Crayfish
19Subphylum CrustaceaClass Branchiopoda
- some of the most primitive crustaceans
- no specialized respiratory structures use legs
- most are filter feeders
- most are microscopic
- many live in temporary aquatic habitats
Tadpole shrimp
Fairy shrimp
Cladoceran
20Subphylum CrustaceaClass Maxillopoda
- important component of the zooplankton of
freshwaters and marine waters of the worldhave
no abdominal appendages - includes organisms like copepods, seed shrimp,
barnacles -
Barnacles
21Subphylum CrustaceaClass Malacostraca
- largest and most successful crustacean class
- most are marine with complicated life cycles that
include several larval stages - freshwater forms usually have direct development
22Malacostracans
Amphipods
Isopods
Decapods
23Phylum ArthropodaSubphylum Uniramia
24Subphylum Uniramia
- conquered land
- as name implies appendages are uniramous
- respiration through a tracheal system, aquatic
larvae may gills
25Subphylum Uniramia
26Subphylum Uniramia
excretion with malpighian tubules
27Subphylum Uniramia
- molting continues until they reach adulthood
- most (i.e., insects) show some degree of
metamorphosis (e.g., egg, larva, pupa, adult) - Three major types of metamorphosis
- Ametabolous or no metamorphosis- direct
development Collembola - Hemimetabolous or gradual metamorphosis
Hemiptera - Holometabolous or complete metamorphosis
Lepidoptera

29(No Transcript)
30Subphylum Uniramia
- first groups (i.e., insects) that have taken up
flight - not all insects have wings
Grasshopper
31Subphylum Uniramiatwo classes
- Myriapoda (millipedes (Diplopoda) and centipedes
(Chilopoda)) - body divided into head and trunk with many trunk
segments most with appendages
32Myriapoda
33Subphylum Uniramiatwo classes
- Insecta or Hexapoda
- body divided into head, thorax, abdomen
- thorax with 3 pairs of legs
- thorax in most have 2 pairs of wings in adults
- insects most successful group of animals on earth
34Insecta
- some important biological advancements
- Diapause- over wintering or passing through
drought periods - Social Behavior- e.g., bees, termites
- Communication critical for development of
societies
35Types of Communication
Chemosensory antennae
- chemical pheromones, ex. Moths and butterfllies
- sound- chirping, ex. Crickets and grasshoppers
- visual- bioluminescence, fire flies
36Insects and Humans
Polinators
- many beneficial insects ex., bees
- many harmful insects
- eat crops grasshoppers
- vectors of disease mosquitoes
Crop destruction
Disease vectors
37Some important insect orders
- Hymenoptera- bees, wasps
- Many build complex societies
Honey bee
Yellow jackets
Ant
38Some important insect orders
- Lepidoptera moths and butterflies
- Larvae or catepillars important herbivores
Giant moth
Viceroy
Hornworm
39Some important insect orders
- Orthoptera grasshoppers and crickets
- Some are important crop pests
Cricket
Grasshopper
40Some important insect orders
- Diptera true flies
- Many are important disease vectors
- Larvae are decomposers and some are predators
Mosquito
Housefly
Fleshfly
41Some important insect orders
- Hemiptera- true bugs
- Some feed on plant juices so are crop pests
- Others are strictly predators, some feeding on
pest insects
Wheelbug
Stinkbug
42Some important insect orders
- Coleoptera- beetles (most successful order of
animals on earth) - About 500,000 species have been described
Diving beetle
Rhinocerus beetle
Ladybug
Weevil
