A separate version of the Chelicerate exists in the Void. A Chelicerate found in this biome has a white body that turns grey towards the head and the tail. The Void Chelicerate is also significantly ...

Though it surrounds the entirety of the map, the player normally enters the biome through the Lilypad Islands, either of the Arctic regions, and the Tree Spires, unlike the Crater Edge which can be ...

The magazine’s most-read articles of the year included a deep dive on the Scopes "monkey trial," an interview with ...

Subnautica features unique and impressive creatures, from Leviathans the size of buses to skyscrapers. Creatures like the Chelicerate and Ghost Leviathan are terrifying, with unique abilities and ...

The oldest signs of a spider-like brain have been found in an ancient marine fossil. It shows that the key brain features of arachnids – the group containing spiders and scorpions – were already ...

For the first time ever, the genome of a knotty sea spider was sequenced in high resolution. Prashant Sharma / University of Wisconsin Though sea spiders have thrived for millions of years in a ...

Scientists have decoded the sea spider’s genome for the first time, revealing how its strangely shaped body—with organs in its legs and barely any abdomen—may be tied to a missing gene. The detailed ...

The sea spider, those spindly marine oddities that seem composed almost entirely of legs and claws, just given up their genetic secrets. Stretching across 57 pseudo-chromosomes and paired with ...

An international collaboration featuring the University of Vienna and the University of Wisconsin-Madison (USA) has led to the first-ever chromosome-level genome assembly of a sea spider (Pycnogonum ...

Researchers sequenced the genome of a sea spider, revealing it lacks whole-genome duplication seen in related arachnids. This positions sea spiders near the base of the chelicerate family tree. The ...

For decades, scientists believed that arachnids, a group that includes spiders, scorpions, mites, and horseshoe crabs, made a single transition from water to land. This long-standing view shaped ...
