Abstract:

A description is given of protective habitat concentrations of one or several species of spiders giving examples of winter and summer concentrations (in the inflorescences of grasses, in clumps of sedge, in shells of molluscs etc.) and an examlple of what is known as web parasitization; within such concentrations the spiders exhibit tolerance towards each other. In author's opinion these populational phenomena are the primary basis on which in some spider species social relations developed. The tendency existing in spiders to congregate in groups althou1gh not in itself yet a social character, may lead to the formation of true societies in certain species. Social phenomena in several species of tropical and subtropical spiders which have been studied are given. The opinions held by Kullmann and Shear on social phenomena in spiders and their attempts at classification of these phenomena are given. Among species inhabiting temperate climates a social relations is formed inthose spider species in which the females actively feed their progeny (Kullmann). Among a certain small numer of species from eigth families of web spiders living in tropical climates „societies” developed and the individuals of such”societies” live, catch their prey and feed together. It would appear that social characters have formed among spiders irrespective of the different stages of evolutional development of the web forms and that the main basis of their formation is the existence of webs as an element facilitating more lasting congregation of spiders and reciprocal contacts between individuals.
