Changes in nymphal morphometric values and tarsal microstructures during postembryonic development in the Neotropical harvestman Heteromitobates albiscriptus (Opiliones: Gonyleptidae)
(Amer Arachnological Soc, 2016)The postembryonic development of Opiliones (Arachnida) includes three phases: larval, nymphal (with four to eight instars), and adult (when molts cease). The present study aimed to describe the postembryonic development ...

História natural e mecanismos utilizados na navegação no opilião Heteromitobates discolor (Arachnida,Opiliones)
(Universidade Federal de São Paulo, 2015-07-27)Animals may use external or internal cues to navigate towards an original location. Here we studied the homing ability of the harvestman Heteromitobates discolor (Arachnida, Opiliones). We tested the importance of (1) their ...

Putative thermo-/hygroreceptive tarsal sensilla on the sensory legs of an armored harvestman (Arachnida, Opiliones)
(Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2017)Most harvestman species are dependent on high humidity levels and amenable temperatures for homeostasis. While they are known to actively choose environments with these conditions, no thermo/hygroreceptor has yet been ...

Ultrastructure of chemoreceptive tarsal sensilla in an armored harvestman and evidence of olfaction across Laniatores (Arachnida, Opiliones)
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2017)Harvestmen (Arachnida, Opiliones) are especially dependent on chemical cues and are often regarded as animals that rely mainly on contact chemoreception. Information on harvestman sensilla is scarce when compared to other ...
