Cupiennius spiders (Trechaleidae) from southern Mexico: DNA barcoding, venomics, and biological effect Article uri icon

Abstracto

  • Background:

    Members of the genus Cupiennius Simon, 1891 are categorized as wandering spiders and are part of the family Trechaleidae. The genomics and proteomics of Cupiennius spiders from North America remain uncharacterized. The present study explores for the first time molecular data from the endemic species Cupiennius chiapanensis Medina, 2006, and also presents new data for Cupiennius salei (Keyserling, 1878), both collected in southern Mexico.
