All the anomalies were obtained by exposing developing embryos to alternate temperatures of 14 and 32[degree]C. Amputation of fragments of anomalous appendages was always followed by regeneration. Based on the characteristic external structures of the regenerating joints, successive stages of epimorphosis were estabilished, whose start and end were marked by ecdyses. Several types of regenerates were found, whose anatomical structure did not undergo further significant changes until the end of our observations.}, keywords = {Appendages, appendages / ] [Regeneration / Epimorphic regeneration / ]., General morphology, Immunology and repair, mechanisms, Mouthparts, nymph] [Prosomal legs / Walking, Tegenaria atrica (Araneae)., Tegenaria atrica [Pedipalps / / larva}, isbn = {0044-510X}, url = {://ZOOREC:ZOOR14801005177}, author = {Napiorkowska, Teresa and Jacunski, Lech and Templin, Julita} }
