... Most Salticids are likely polyphagous predators who prefer to prey on soft-bodied and convenient to handle arthropods (Bartos, 2004;Guseinov, 2005;Huseynov, 2006). The jumping spiders of Pakistan have the least studies family than adjacent countries Iran, China and India (Ali et al., 2018;Ali, 2021;Azarkina, 2004;Azarkina, 2019;Bauer & Freudenschuss, 2015;Caleb et al., 2019;Caleb et al., 2022;Dyal, 1935;Kadam et al., 2021;Li, 2020;Logunov 2021a;c;Prószyński & Żochowska, 1981;Tripathi et al., 2021]. Aelurillus logunovi Azarkina, 2004 was first described from a type of material from district Swabi, collected by A. H.

Forty adults of Aellurilus logunovi Azarkina, 2004 were randomly collected from scrub hills edges of district Swabi, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan and observed in a controlled environment at Zoology Lab, Women University Swabi. The study aimed to describe predatory behaviour, i.e., foraging modes, how they establish predatory responses to prey and the abiotic factors that influence their hunting in a controlled environment. It is firstly reported that Aellurilus logunovi Azarkina, 2004 is a generalist predator and has a mix of feeding modes of insectivores and araneophagic or cannibalism with, utilizing their prey by either squeezing or partially engulfing. As the handling time increases with an increased body mass of prey and decreases with an increased mass of predators and reduces the mass of prey. It is also first reported that the activity of Aellurilus logunovi is highly affected by ambient temperature and light, i.e., their activity increased with an increase in temperature and light and mainly was more active below 40°C.

... To date, only three noticeable taxonomic-faunistic works devoted to Afghani spiders, containing the bulk of the currently available information about Salticidae, have been published by Denis (1958), Roewer (1962), and Logunov & Zamanpoore (2005). In addition, only a few more salticid species have been added to the Afghani fauna by several authors (Prószyński 1982;Andreeva, Hęciak & Prószyński 1984;Wesołowska 1986;Logunov 2001aLogunov ,b, 2021Azarkina , 2019Metzner 2021). ...

Based on earlier and present findings, the salticid fauna of Afghanistan includes 64 valid species in 30 genera (Prószyński 1982;Logunov & Zamanpoore 2005;Azarkina , 2019Metzner 2021;present data), although some of the earlier records are in need of confirmation by reference to the pertinent material (see Logunov & Zamanpoore 2005 for further details). The present count is slightly smaller than that provided by Metzner (2021), who listed 61 species as occurring in Afghanistan, plus six species added in the present paper: thus, 67 species in total. ...

... The first data about Thai representatives of the family were published by Giebel [1863], with all the species described by him being considered nomina dubia by Roewer in 1955 [Azarkina, 2019]. Simon [1886] reported on two species from Thailand: Telamonia hasselti (Thorell, 1878) (described as Viciria scoparia) from Chantaboun [=Chanthaburi] and Hyllus diardi (Walckenaer, 1837) from Tung Yai (Turgiai in Simon [1886]) located on the seashore near Chantaboun. ...

Jumping spiders of 10 species collected from Satun, Sukhotai and Kanchanaburi Provinces of Thailand are studied. Six species are reported from the country for the first time: Evarcha bulbosa Żabka, 1985, Phintella vittata (C.L. Koch, 1846), Phintelloides versicolor (C.L. Koch, 1846 and Portia labiata (Thorell, 1887). Two of them are new to the fauna of Indo-China (Holoplatys digitatus Zhou, Irfan et Peng, 2017 and Menemerus nigli Wesołowska et Freudenschuss, 2012). Three species – M. brachygnathus (Thorell, 1887), Plexippus paykulli (Audouin, 1826) and P. setipes Karsch, 1879 – have the southernmost records of their distribution in Thailand. One species – Stenaelurillus abramovi Logunov, 2008 – has a southernmost limit of its range. Photos of living specimens for eight species, as well as drawings of the copulatory organs for H. digitatus and M. nigli are provided.
