摘要

摘要最近发表在《生态圈》上的一篇文章声称,报告了全球首例狼蛛捕食蝙蝠的案例,以及全球首例脂肪目蜘蛛捕食哺乳动物的案例,该论文的结论可能对公共卫生产生影响。捕食通常被理解为“捕获、杀死和吃掉”。然而,这些方面都没有观察到。此外,没有考虑到蝙蝠生物学的关键方面,包括这只蝙蝠是一只不会飞的新生儿,捕获它需要一些解释。我们重新审视这个有趣的观察,考虑到蝙蝠和蜘蛛的生态学。

Comment on Dunbar et al. (2022) “Webslinger vs. Dark Knight: First record of a false widow spider Steatoda nobilis preying on a pipistrelle bat in Britain”
Abstract. A recent publication in Ecosphere claimed to report the first case of a predation event by a theridiid spider on a bat globally and the first case of a member of the genus Steatoda preying on a mammal globally, and the paper concludes with possible implications for public health. Predation is typically understood to mean “capture, kill, and eat”. However, none of these aspects had been observed. Moreover, key aspects of bat biology were not taken into account, including that the bat in question was a flightless newborn, the capture of which would require some explanation. We revisit this interesting observation considering both bat and spider ecology.

期刊介绍: Web Ecology (WE) is an open-access journal issued by the European Ecological Federation (EEF) representing the ecological societies within Europe and associated members. Its special value is to serve as a publication forum for national ecological societies that do not maintain their own society journal. Web Ecology publishes papers from all fields of ecology without any geographic restriction. It is a forum to communicate results of experimental, theoretical, and descriptive studies of general interest to an international audience. Original contributions, short communications, and reviews on ecological research on all kinds of organisms and ecosystems are welcome as well as papers that express emerging ideas and concepts with a sound scientific background.
