Abstract: The present checklist of spiders of Odisha is the
result of the compilation of all published literature on spiders and primary
data collected during the present study carried out from July 2016 to March
2017 in Odisha. A total of 138 species
of spiders belonging to 95 genera and 33 families were recorded in the present
study. Of which, seven families, 36
genera and 80 species of spiders were reported for the first time from
Odisha. Of these 80 species, 78 spider
species were exclusively reported from the Eastern Ghats of Odisha. With this
study, spider diversity of Odisha comprised of 248 species belonging to 139
genera and 39 families. Whereas, Eastern
Ghats of Odisha comprised of 181 species belonging to 109 genera and 35
families. Of total spiders from Odisha,
23 species were found to be endemic to southern Asia, 49 species endemic to
India and 19 species endemic to Odisha.
Keywords: Araneae, araneomorph, diversity, Eastern Ghats,
endemic, mygalomorph, new records.
INTRODUCTION
Spiders represent one of the most diversified groups
amongst invertebrates and are ranked seventh in the global biodiversity, with
48,143 species under 4,131 genera and 117 families described from the World
(Penney et al. 2003; WSC 2019). About
1,909 species belonging to 488 genera and 64 different families have been
reported from India (WSC 2019), of which, about 115 species in 33 genera and
eight families are of mygalomorph spiders and the rest of the species are of
araneomorph spiders (WSC 2019). This
number is very much underestimated and many more species are waiting to be
discovered in the country because till date spider studies in India have been
restricted to a few areas in the absence of systematic spider surveys for most
of the states in India (Sebastian & Peter 2009).
Bio-geographically, Odisha (17.802–22.563 0N
and 81.383–87.482 0E) is an important region as it has faunal
representation from the north-east, the Eastern and Western Ghats (Aditya
2015). The diverse habitat supports a
good faunal diversity in the State (Anon. 1987, 1989, 1990, 1993). However, spider fauna of Odisha is poorly
studied like other parts of India with obscure and sporadic records of this
group from various parts of the state.
The first spider reported from Odisha was a mygalomorph spider, Diplothele
walshi by O. Pickard-Cambridge (1891), later, Gravely (1921, 1931) added 51
species of spiders to it, which included both araneomorphs and mygalomorphs.
Subsequent additions to the list of spiders were by Biswas (1975, 1987), Gajbe
(1979), Tikader & Malhotra (1980), Tikader (1982), Majumder
& Tikader (1991), Ramakrishna et al. (2006), Molur et al.
(2008), Siliwal & Molur (2008), Siliwal et al. (2009a,b,
2010), Panda et al. (2011), Gupta et al. (2013, 2015), and Mohapatra et al.
(2014), adding almost 100 species to Gravely’s (1921, 1931) contribution.
Considering the shortcomings of previous studies, systematic surveys were
carried out to document spider diversity from different parts of Odisha.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Study area
The present study was carried out mainly in the Eastern
Ghats of Odisha with a few surveys outside the Eastern Ghats (Fig. 1, Table 1).
The Eastern Ghats represent a discontinuous range of
mountains (also known as Malyadri) situated along the eastern coast of India
and is one of the important physiographic units with great environmental,
socio-economic, cultural and spiritual significance in the peninsular region of
our country (Sinha 1971). The Eastern Ghats start in West Bengal and the
mountain range continues to pass through Odisha, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, and
Tamil Nadu. The Eastern Ghats of
Odisha (Fig. 1) represent the northern Eastern Ghats. Based on
geological and tectonic considerations, the Eastern Ghats in Odisha start from
north of Similipal in Mayurbhanj District and run through Malkangiri covering
18 districts of Odisha (Dash et al. 2009). Mountain peaks and foot hills have contrasted
weather resulting into a humid habitat in high altitudes to a semiarid habitat
in foot hills. Vegetation of this region
comes under the northern tropical moist deciduous forests. Physio-geographically, this region is divided
into five sub regions: 1. the Similipal and Meghasani mountain, 2. the
Mankarnacha-Malaygiri and Gandhamardan mountains of the Baitarani and the
Brahmani interfluve, 3. the watershed between the Brahmani and the Mahanadi, 4.
the common interfluves of the Mahanadi, the Rushikulya and the Vamsadhara, and
5. the Potangi and Chandragiri mountain ranges.
The highest mountain peak is Deomali (1672m), which is situated in the
Koraput District of southern Odisha. It
is part of the Chandragiri-Pottangi mountain system that forms part of the
Indian Peninsula and was a part of the ancient land mass of Gondwana land. Being physio-geographically heterogeneous,
the Eastern Ghats of Odisha represent one of the biodiversity-important
ecoregion. It is also rich in iron ore
and minerals and supports a rich ethnic diversity (Sinha 1971; Dash et al. 2009).
Methods
Spider collection was done from July 2016 to March 2017
covering all seasons (monsoon: July to October; winter: November to February;
and summer: March to June). Various
sampling methods, viz., vegetation beating, pitfall trapping, sweep-netting, hand-picking,
and leaf litter sampling (Koh & Ming 2013) were used to collect
spiders. Two to four persons were
engaged in active searching for spiders and a total of 1,000 man-hours were
spent on collecting spiders in the study area during the entire study period. All possible habitats, viz., dense
forest, open forest, wetlands, scrub lands, hill forests, agricultural fields
and human settlements were covered in the present study. Specimens, after
collecting were preserved in 70% alcohol.
All mygalomorph specimens were deposited at Wildlife Information Liaison
Development Society (WILD) museum, Coimbatore and all araneomorph specimens
were deposited at Indraprastha University (IPU) museum, Delhi. Spiders were identified examining the
specimens under Olympus SZ10 stereozoom microscope. For identification, female genitalia were
dissected and cleaned in concentrated lactic acid for 15–20 minutes. Identification was done using different
publications by Tikader (1980, 1982, 1987), Tikader & Malhotra (1980),
Barrion & Litsinger (1995), Song et al. (1999), Jocqué & Dippenaar-Schoeman
(2006), Gajbe (2008), Sebastian & Peter (2009), and Metzner (2017).
Checklist of spiders of Odisha was prepared from the
present study data and compiling the species from published literature
(peer-reviewed journals) from the state on spiders. Papers published in predatory journals, or
unpublished literature like Ph.D. thesis, post-graduation dissertations and
newspaper articles were not included in the compilation of the present checklist.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSIONS
Before the present study, 168 species of spiders
belonging to 103 genera and 32 families were reported from Odisha and of these,
103 species belonging to 68 genera and 24 families were reported from Eastern
Ghats of Odisha (Pickard-Cambridge 1891; Walsh 1891; Gravely 1921, 1931; Biswas
1975, 1987; Gajbe 1979; Tikader & Malhotra 1980; Tikader 1982; Majumder
& Tikader 1991; Ramakrishna et al. 2006; Molur et al. 2008; Siliwal &
Molur 2008; Siliwal et al. 2009a,b, 2010; Panda et al. 2011; Gupta et al. 2013;
Mohapatra et al. 2014) (Table 2, Figs. 2).
Four species—Cheiracanthium inclusum (Hentz, 1847), Oxyopes
lineatipes (C.L. Koch, 1847), Oxyopes papuanus Thorell,
1881, and Uloborus barbipes L. Koch, 1872—reported from the state
by Panda et al. (2011) and Mohapatra et al. (2014), were probably identified
based on photographs and seems to be a clear case of misidentification. So far, these species are known from outside
India only. Hence, the present checklist
did not consider these species in our checklist and these species need further
taxonomic verification.
During the present study, 138 species of spiders
belonging to 95 genera and 33 families were reported from Odisha. Of which, seven families, 36 genera and 80
species of spiders were reported for the first time from Odisha. Of these 80
species, 78 spider species were exclusively reported from the Eastern Ghats of
Odisha. Here, we would like to make a
note that in the present checklist 77 spiders are identified only up to genus
level only (Table 2).
Based on all the compilation of previous reports and
data from present study, the spider diversity of Odisha comprises 248 species
belonging to 139 genera and 39 families and
Eastern Ghats of Odisha 181 species belonging to 109 genera and 35
families (Table 2; Fig. 2, Image 1A–L).
The study shows that over 72% of spiders reported from Odisha are found
in the Eastern Ghats of Odisha (Table 2) and hence, the Eastern Ghats
contribute largely to the spider diversity of Odisha.
Among the spiders reported in the present study, Parasteatoda
kompirensis (Bösenberg & Strand, 1906) was reported for the
first time from India (Malik et al. 2018) (Table 2). The study also reported two rare spiders—Inthaeron
spp.—from Odisha, which will be published in different paper. Amongst these spiders reported in Odisha,
species richness of family Araneidae (45 spp.) was found to be highest followed
by Salticidae (35 spp.) and Lycosidae (17 spp.) (Table 2; Fig. 2). Of the total spiders from Odisha, 23 species
were found to be endemic to South Asia and 49 species endemic to India. Of the spiders endemic to India, 19 species
are reported from Odisha State only (Table 2).
Though the present study was for a short period and
mostly restricted to the Eastern Ghats of Odisha, the findings of this study
are significant, as during the study, 80 species for Odisha and one for India
were added to the existing list for the first time. Therefore, there is a need to carry out
systematic surveys in the entire state covering all the seasons to get an
optimum estimate of spider diversity.
