The wolf spider of genus Xerolycosa Dahl, 1908 from China is reviewed, including four species: X. miniata (C.L. Koch, 1834), X. mongolica (Schenkel, 1963), X. nemoralis (Westring, 1861) and X. xinjiangensis sp. nov. (male). Pardosa sinensis Yin, Peng, Kim et Wang, 1995 is newly synonymized with X. miniata (C.L. Koch, 1834). Morphological illustrations, photos, and descriptions of all species are given. SEM photos of male bulbs and photos of living specimens of X. nemoralis are also presented.

Triclocarban (TCC), an emerging organic contaminant, poses a potential threat to water resources and ecosystems. The wolf spider Pardosa pseudoannulata (Araneae: Lycosidae) is a dominant predator typically inhabiting rice fields or wet habitats near water sources. However, little is known about the effects of TCC on the wolf spiders.

Natural enemies are essential for the integrated pest management (IPM) strategy in insect pest control. However, chemical pesticides remain the primary method for insect pest control, diminishing natural enemies and causing environmental contamination. The wolf spider (Pardosa pseudoannulata), a major enemy in agro-ecosystem, exhibits maternal care (MC) behaviors such as eggsac-carrying and pulli-carrying, which are crucial for population growth.

Article Synopsis
- Antibiotic resistance is a growing issue, and researchers are exploring antimicrobial peptides like LC-AMP-I1 from venom as potential solutions.
- LC-AMP-I1 shows strong antibacterial effects against multidrug-resistant bacteria, prevents biofilm formation, and has low toxicity to human cells.
- In experiments, LC-AMP-I1 worked well with traditional antibiotics and effectively reduced bacterial growth in an infection model, suggesting it could be a promising alternative to standard treatments.
