A contribution to the jumping spider fauna (Araneae: Salticidae) of the Greek Island of Corfu with four new records for the island and a note on the genus Salticus. During a survey of the jumping spider fauna of the Greek island of Corfu, 30 species in 18 genera were recorded. Four species, Heliophanus equester L. Koch, 1867, Neaetha absheronica Lo...

Integrative taxonomy is crucial for discovery, recognition, and species delimitation, especially in underestimated species complex or cryptic species, by incorporating different sources of evidence to construct rigorous species hypotheses. The spider genus Physocyclus Simon, 1893 (Pholcidae, Arteminae) is composed of 37 species, mainly from North A...
In this paper, 11 families (Agelenidae, Filistatidae, Hahniidae, Liocranidae, Mimetidae, Mysmenidae, Oecobiidae, Pholcidae, Phrurolithidae, Sparassidae and Uloboridae), 18 genera and 18 species of spiders new to Armenia are reported. one genus, Mesiotelus Simon, 1897 (Liocranidae) is new to the entire Caucasus. Illustrations are provided for six sp...
The genus Kelawakaju Maddison & Ruiz, gen. nov. , is described for a lineage of bark-dwelling Asian marpissine jumping spiders that represent a dispersal to Eurasia separate from that of the Marpissa - Mendoza lineage, according to the phylogeny recovered from analysis of four gene regions. All species of Kelawakaju are new to science except Kelawa...

... Compared to the results of other general studies in urban environments, summarizing all available faunistic data the araneofauna of Plovdiv shows high diversity. For example, the total number of spiders in Sofia is 306 (Antov et al., 2004;Drensky, 1913, 1936, Deltshev, 1967, Indzhov, 2020, Naumova, 2019, Naumova et al., 2017, Schäfer, 2021, 118 in Skopje (Stefanovska et al., 2008), 249 in Chernivtsi, Ukraine (Fedoriak & Zhukovets, 2010) and 141 in Rostov-na Don, Russia (Ponomarev, 2021). Despite the narrow altitude range (only 91 meters) between 145 and 236 m a.s.l., the unsystematic sampling and insignificant part of material collected by pitfall traps, the overall number of spiders established during this study is considerable and represents 182 species in the city of Plovdiv and 305 spider species after including sites in the nearest outskirts. ...
Although Plovdiv is the second largest city in Bulgaria and on its territory, there are many natural habitats of high conservation importance, there is still almost no data on the species composition of the arachnid fauna. Our study is the first attempt to summarize available published and to provide original data about three orders of arachnids. The following number of the investigated taxa of arachnids was established: spiders: 312 species from 33 families, pseudoscorpions: 4 species from 4 families and one scorpion species (from Euscorpiidae family). New for the region of Plovdiv are 280 species, thirteen spider species are newly recorded for the country and five of them are first records from the Balkans as well. Lathys spasskyi seems to be a first record from Europe and Zelotes harmeron is the first published record from the European mainland. The high total number of species presented here, as well as the many new country records, show that the studies of arachnids in cities have been unjustifiably neglected.
On the jumping spider fauna (Araneae: Salticidae) of the Greek Dodecanese island Rhodes, with the first description of the female of Pseudeuophrys rhodiensis and the first record of Evarcha nepos for Greece. In the course of a survey of the jumping spiders of the Greek island of Rhodes, 17 species from 11 genera were recorded. Two species, Heliophanus equester L. Koch, 1867 and Evarcha nepos (O. Pickard-Cambridge, 1872) are first records for the island and E. nepos is recorded for the first time in Greece. Moreover, the female of Pseudeuophrys rhodiensis Schäfer, 2018 is described here for the first time.
