FIGURE 9. Troglotayosicus meijdeni sp. nov. Cannibalistic behavior documented in the field. A. Subadult animal, to the right, grabbing a juvenile from the intersection between the metasomal segment V and telson, while stinging through the intersegmental membrane at level of mesosomal tergites VI and VII. B. Same specimens, the subadult to the left preying upon the other. Note that the prey remains held from the metasoma, while the predator's chelicerae work on the opisthosomal pleural membrane to start feeding.
