Phylum Arthropoda
Subphylum Chelicerata
Subphylum Chelicerata


Includes spiders, horseshoe
crabs, seas spiders and
scorpions
Cephalothorax
Have only two tagmata:
cephalothorax and the abdomen
Abdomen
Subphylum Chelicerata
Cephalothorax bears 6
pairs of appendages





Chelicera are on
the 2nd
cephalothorax
segment

4 pr walking legs.
Do not have
antennae and
deutocerebrum







Horseshoe crabs
Up to 75 cm (largest
chelicerates)
Live in marine shallow
water on soft bottoms

Toxic (lethal) to Predators
– saxotoxin in tissues
Vestigial coelom = body

Subphylum Chelicerata
Class Xiphosura - Feeding




Uses chelate
walking legs and
chelicera to
capture food.
Transferred to the
food groove
Base of
appendages are
grinding surfaces
(gnathobases)
Spines on
appendages move
food to mouth
