features
The Telemidae are spiders up to 2 millimeters in size, their brown color usually shimmering bluish. The abdomen ( abdominal ) tends to be oblong-shaped. At the transition from the rear to the front body there are sclerites arranged in a zigzag . These are more pronounced in the males than in the females. The four spinnerets are grouped around the large, rhombic colulus , the anterior spinnerets being made up of two segments and the posterior central spinnerets being tetrahedral . Their cylindrical spinning glands show strong sexual dimorphisms . The sexual organs are haplogyn, that is, they are simply structured. The female genitals consist of a single, large sperm library . The male spermatophore has the shape of a ribbon and is located on the cymbium . The animals have no book lung , but only two pairs of tracheas . The rear pair is at the level of the middle of the abdomen. The chitinous back shield of the front body, the so-called carapace , is somewhat wider than it is long. The sternum on the ventral side resembles a T. While some species of Telemidae have no eyes at all, other species have six eyes arranged in three pairs. There are three claws on the long, thin legs, which are covered with fine spines. There is no trichobothrium on the spider's foot . The jaw claws ( Chelicere ) have teeth in both furrows.
Way of life
Most of the time the spiders in this family burrow in the wild. However, some species mainly live in caves created by waste.
