ALOPECOSA INQUILINA ( CLERCK, 1757) View in CoL

Czech Republic, Proseč pod Ještědem, scarce pine forest, 27 October 2006, lgt. P.D., coll. National Museum (P6A 6119), number of copulations = 1

The male began courting after 9.90 min in the arena. Courtship was initiated with P_CI, and the male then approached the female with his front legs quivering and pointing forward (L_Q). The front leg closer to the female usually quivered more rapidly. After 15 min, the female fell into catalepsy (C_H) and allowed the male to mate with her. Copulation took 1.06 min and comprised three palpal insertions (seven, 11 and 12 rapid haematodochal expansions). For images, see DolejŠ & Kůrka (2016).
