''Promyrmekiaphila clathrata'' is a species of wafer-lid trapdoor spider in the family Euctenizidae that is endemic to the state of California in the United States. Its range is restricted to the central and northern California Coast Ranges, from San Benito County to Glenn County Glenn County is a county located in the U.S. state of California.

Like its sister species, ''C. winnemem'', it can be distinguished from species in similar genera by the dusky chevron pattern on its abdomen. It prefers vegetated, mesic habitats that retain some moisture, where it builds burrows in soil up to 30 cm deep. Like other members of this family, it covers its burrow entrance with a door made of silk and soil. References Euctenizidae Articles created by Qbugbot Spiders described in 1891 {{mygalomorp ...

Euctenizidae
The Euctenizidae (formerly Cyrtaucheniidae subfamily Euctenizinae) are a family of mygalomorph spiders. They are now considered to be more closely related to Idiopidae. Etymology The name comes from the Greek prefix (''eu-''), meaning "valuable" or "good", which had been thought that the family Ctenizidae possess these traits.Bond, J. E., B. E. Hendrixson, C. A. Hamilton & M. Hedin. (Bond et al., 2012b) - ''A reconsideration of the classification of the spider infraorder Mygalomorphae (Arachnida: Araneae) based on three nuclear genes and morphology'' Biology Many, but not all, make wafer-like doors to their burrows, while others build the cork-like doors found commonly in the true trapdoor spiders. The biology of nearly all of the species is poorly known. Distribution The family occurs almost exclusively in the United States and Mexico. Common U.S. genera include '' Myrmekiaphila'', '' Aptostichus'' and '' Promyrmekiaphila''. Genera , the World Spider Catalog accepts the f ...

Endemic
Endemism is the state of a species being found in a single defined geographic location, such as an island, state, nation, country or other defined zone; organisms that are indigenous to a place are not endemic to it if they are also found elsewhere. For example, the Cape sugarbird is found exclusively in southwestern South Africa and is therefore said to be ''endemic'' to that particular part of the world. An endemic species can be also be referred to as an ''endemism'' or in scientific literature as an ''endemite''. For example ''Cytisus aeolicus'' is an endemite of the Italian flora. ''Adzharia renschi'' was once believed to be an endemite of the Caucasus, but it was later discovered to be a non-indigenous species from South America belonging to a different genus. The extreme opposite of an endemic species is one with a cosmopolitan distribution, having a global or widespread range. A rare alternative term for a species that is endemic is "precinctive", which applies to ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

California Coast Ranges
The Coast Ranges of California span from Del Norte or Humboldt County, California, south to Santa Barbara County. The other three coastal California mountain ranges are the Transverse Ranges, Peninsular Ranges and the Klamath Mountains. Physiographically, they are a section of the larger Pacific Border province, which in turn is part of the larger Pacific Mountain System physiographic division. UNESCO has included the " California Coast Ranges Biosphere Reserve" in its Man and the Biosphere Programme of World Network of Biosphere Reserves since 1983. * Physiography The northern end of the California Coast Ranges overlap the southern end of the Klamath Mountains for approximately 80 miles on the west. They extend southward for more than 600 miles to where the coastline turns eastward along the Santa Barbara Channel, around the area of Point Conception. Here the southern end meets the Los Angeles Transverse Ranges, or ''Sierras de los Angeles''. The rocks themselves that ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
