Neoheterophrictus amboli is a species of theraphosid spiders, which is found in India. [1]
The specific name of this species, amboli, comes from the type locality, Amboli.
N. amboli has a swelling in the sub-apical segment of the primary tibial apophysis, which abruptly terminates into a blunt tubercle, and has a long spine in the basal segments. On the secondary tibial apophysis, there is a stout, short spine. [2]
Salticinae is a subfamily of jumping spiders. It includes over 90% of the known species of jumping spiders. The subfamily is divided into two unranked clades: Amycoida and Salticoida.
Tarantulas comprise a group of large and often hairy spiders of the family Theraphosidae. Currently, 1,010 species have been identified. The term "tarantula" is usually used to describe members of the family Theraphosidae, although many other members of the same infraorder (Mygalomorphae) are commonly referred to as "tarantulas" or "false tarantulas". Some of the more common species have become popular in the exotic pet trade. Many New World species kept as pets have setae known as urticating hairs that can cause irritation to the skin, and in extreme cases, cause damage to the eyes.
Theraphosa apophysis is a species of spider in the family Theraphosidae, found in Venezuela and Brazil.
This glossary describes the terms used in formal descriptions of spiders; where applicable these terms are used in describing other arachnids.
Scalidognathus is a genus of Asian armored trapdoor spiders that was first described by Ferdinand Anton Franz Karsch in 1892. Originally placed with the Ctenizidae, it was moved to the Idiopidae in 1985.
Zygoballus tibialis is a species of jumping spider native to Central America. It was first described by the arachnologist Frederick Octavius Pickard-Cambridge in 1901. The type specimens are housed at the Natural History Museum in London.
The Ischnocolinae are a problematic subfamily of tarantulas. In 1892, Eugène Simon based the group, which he noted was only weakly homogeneous, on the presence of divided tarsal scopulae. This feature was later considered to be plesiomorphic, and both morphological and molecular phylogenetic studies have shown that, as traditionally circumscribed, the subfamily is not monophyletic. A much more narrowly defined Ischnocolinae sensu stricto was proposed in 2014. One of the authors of that proposal subsequently said that no further taxonomic changes should be considered until there had been a more comprehensive sampling of the subfamily. As of January 2021, the status of the Ischnocolinae remains unresolved.
Neoheterophrictus sahyadri is a spider species in the genus Neoheterophrictus. It was first described in 2012 by Manju Siliwal, Neha Gupta, and Robert John Raven. Its name "sahyadri" comes from the vernacular name for the Western Ghats, a mountain range in India where it was discovered.
