FIG. 3. –– Life cycle of Vesubia jugorum (Simon, 1881) derived from field observations conducted across the species distribution range during the 2016-2019 sampling seasons. Daily fluctuations in temperature (red line) and humidity (blue line) derived from data-logger positioned across 2018 and 2019 at the ground level under stones, in the nearby of Rocca dell'Abisso (Valdieri, 2589 m a.s.l.). Daily fluctuations in air temperature (orange line) derived from the meteorological station of Rocca dell'Abisso (2753 m a.s.l.). Growing season is indicated by light grey (females), black (males) and dotted dark grey (juveniles) bars. Dash line refers to the overwintering. See text for further details.
