Abstract Although the European fauna of spiders is relatively well studied, in the Balkans still have places for which little or almost nothing is known, especially Kosovo, Bosnia & Herzegovina and Montenegro. The spider fauna of Montenegro is still poorly known, and the number of relevant publications is very low, even with catalogs and quoted information is about 90. Only for the cave fauna has more in-depth observations. The aim of this study is to summarize and presents all available data of the spiders of Montenegro, both from the literature and from original records. A total of 144 spider species were collected and after incorporating literature reports, the number of identified species is 289, from 38 families. From them 84 species and two families are new for the country. The presented study provides the first annotated checklist and catalog of the spiders in Montenegro (as a result of a database with 1150 rows/records) with additional taxonomic and faunistic data. Key words: annotated catalog, Balkan Peninsula, checklist, taxonomy, photos. Introduction The Republic of Montenegro is located in southeastern Europe and is a territory with high biodiversity owing to the variety of climate, topography, and geology found here, and the long-term ecological and evolutionary history of this region as a biological crossroads and Ice Age refuge. This suggests a rich araneofauna, but the available data at the moment are very scarce. The first report about the spiders in Montenegro (according to Damin 1900) probably came before the half of the 19th century, from Carrara (1846), but the first sure records came from Doleschall (1852) and Doblika (1853), followed by L. Koch (1868), Canestrini & Pavesi (1868), Pavesi (1876), Simon (1878, 1882), Castelli (1891), Gasperini (1891) and Chyzer & Kulczyński (1891, 1897). The first list of the spiders in Montenegro can be found in Damin (1896, 1900) who presented a total of 66 species, followed by Drensky (1936) with 77 species and Nikolić & Polenec (1981) with 86 species. Later, within about of 50 publications, can be found mostly taxonomic information about Montenegro’s spiders, but till now not any review of the araneofauna of this part of the Balkans. These data are comprised also in the paper of Deltshev (1999), who mentioned 102 species and later (Deltshev 2008) listed 43 species in caves. Ecologica Montenegrina, 22, 2019, 50-89 NAUMOVA ET AL. This review is a critical incorporation of the available literature data, and unpublished records due to sporadic research from 2002 to 2015 year. We excluded all the records from Dalmatia and Yugoslavia, for which cannot certainly be argued that relate to Montenegro. All reports, contained any sure data on the Montenegrin spider fauna were included in a database, which consist 1150 rows/records. The aim of this study is to present annotated checklist and catalog of the spiders of Montenegro with additional taxonomic and faunistic data. Materials and methods The material treated herein comes from two major sources. The first part comprises critical incorporation of all available literature records concerning the distribution of spiders in Montenegro (953 database records). The second part comprises original collections made in the period 2002–2015 during from different colleagues (196 database records). The studied original material was collected by hand picking, under stones, by sweeping and sieving and with pitfall traps (with formaldehyde). The specimens were preserved in 70– 80% ethanol and deposited in the Institute of Biodiversity and Ecosystem Researches (IBER) and the National Museum of Natural History (NMNH) at the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. The digital images were taken with a Lumix digital camera attached to Wild M5A stereomicroscope and prepared with Photoshop CS6 software. The localities (Fig. 1) were mapped on the basis of exact geographic coordinates (decimal), rounded to 4 decimal places (when they are taken in the field with a GPS-receiver), or with approximate coordinates, rounded to 3 decimal places (on the basis of the location of the settlements/geographic objects, which names are given in the older literature). The list of localities (alphabetically by municipalities) includes the sites with numbers 1 to 77 (with exact or approximate coordinates; mapped), followed by sites in Krivosije plateau (lested as 78 to 83, but visualisated with number 78), and followed by sites 84 to 94 (without precise locality; not mapped). Mapping and visualisation of the map were done by ArcGIS 10.1 (ESRI, Redlands, California, USA). The nomenclature follows the World Spider Catalog (2019) and all taxa are listed alphabetically. All new taxa are marked with asterisk (*). The literature sources are listed chronologically (except in cases where the authors have more than one cited publications – then the years are listed after the first mention). The general distribution of the species is given mainly according to WSC 2019 and Nentwig et al. 2019. The additional sources were citing. Abbreviations used in the text include: ♂–male; ♀–female; j/jj–juvenile/s; L–locality (with number in the List of localities); UM–University of Montenegro, Podgorica.

C h a m b e r l i n a n d W i l t o n I v i e The frequency with which members of the Agelenid genus Cybaeus appeared in collections made by the authors in the mountainous and timbered sections of the Pacific coast region and the representations therein of various apparently undescribed species led to the preparation of this review of the known North American forms. One species hereto­ fore placed in Cybaeus is made the type of a new genus Cybaeina. Most of our species occur in the western states; and it is probable that fur­ ther collecting in this region will bring to light a considerable number of additional forms. The drawings accompanying the paper were made from specimens direct excepting in a few cases where material was not available. In these cases the drawings were copied from the figures published by the authors of the species concerned, as indicated hereafter in each such case, but these drawings were somewhat revised to conform with the general scheme of the other figures in order to facilitate comparison.

ZooKeys 474: 1–91. doi: 10.3897/zookeys.474.8474 Abstract The research of the spider fauna of Slovenia dates back to the very beginning of binomial nomenclature, and has gone through more and less prolific phases with authors concentrating on taxonomy, faunistics, ecology and zoogeographic reviews. Although the body of published works is remarkable for a small na- tion, the faunistic data has remained too scattered for a thorough understanding of regional biotic diver- sity, for comparative and ecological research, and for informed conservation purposes. A national checklist is long overdue. Here, a critical review of all published records in any language is provided. The species list currently comprises 738 species, is published online at http://www.bioportal.si/katalog/araneae.php un- der the title Araneae Sloveniae, and will be updated in due course.

  • Frontenac Provincial Park
    FRONTENAC PROVINCIAL PARK One Malaise trap was deployed at Frontenac Provincial Park in 2014 (44.51783, -76.53944, 176m ASL; Figure 1). This trap collected arthropods for twenty weeks from May 9 – September 25, 2014. All 10 Malaise trap samples were processed; every other sample was analyzed using the individual specimen protocol while the second half was analyzed via bulk analysis. A total of 3372 BINs were obtained. Half of the BINs captured were flies (Diptera), followed by bees, ants and wasps (Hymenoptera), moths and butterflies (Lepidoptera), and true bugs (Hemiptera; Figure 2). In total, 750 arthropod species were named, representing 24.6% of the BINs from the site (Appendix 1). All but 1 of the BINs were assigned Figure 1. Malaise trap deployed at Frontenac at least to family, and 58.2% were assigned to a genus Provincial Park in 2014. (Appendix 2). Specimens collected from Frontenac represent 232 different families and 838 genera.
