[edit]

I would like clarification on the issue of L. lugubris, and why it is thought to be the same species as tredecimguttatus. Is there are reference which clarifies this (neither of the links provided mention lugubris). I am not an expert in spiders, but the photos provided by Fauna Laboratories (Kazakhstan) do not look similar to those in the article. Is there a simple explanation for this apparent discrepency?

  • The World Spider Catalog [1]--the link covers the family which includes Latrodectus, lists L. lubugris as a synynom for L. tredecimguttatus. IIRC, L. lubugris is all-black in color (rather than having 13 red spots), so many thought it a different species, but the two color varieties apparently can mate. --EngineerScotty 13:42, 7 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

karakurt

[edit]

Karakurt translates exactly as black+wolf should the word be taken as turkish rather than russian; as kara means black and kurt means wolf in turkish. Since russian has many loanwords from turkish and the species is known to habitate Western Asia (Asia Minor) as well as the Mediterranean Europe I presume it won't be a far fetched guess to think the name derives from turkish rather than russian.

French

[edit]

In Southern France, where this spider is endemic, people call it (araignée) malmignatte. The word araignée means spider, and the adjective malmignatte comes from medieval French. It is formed with the radical mal meaning bad (e.g. malevolence = ill-will) and mignatte which means small and pretty (compare to mignon=cute). Thus malmignatte could be translated by dangerously pretty. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.193.125.87 (talk) 07:50, 8 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I should have added that in Italian, the spider is called "malmignatta". Without surprise, the French and Italian words are identical except for spelling.
