All literature data since the 18th century until August 1996 are compiled. Comparative calculations of the number of spider species in different physio- graphical areas and post-Soviet republics are provided (Chapter 1). A checklist of spiders (Chapter 2) comprises 2,694 species belonging to 473 genera and 49 families. Each species included is supplied with an attribution to both physiographical area(s) and republic(s). Necessary synonymies and valid subspecies are also enlisted, same as nomina dubia and nomina nuda. Correct spellings of most Latin generic and specific names is checked. A bibliographical index (Chapter 3) comprises over 1,900 citations. Destined for zoologists, mainly entomologists and arachnologists, as well as for local biologists and naturalists.

Ìèõàéëîâ, 1997 © Çîîëîãè÷åñêèé ìóçåé ÌÃÓ, 1997 PREFACE The initial idea of this book was to provide an addition to the famous Catalogue of Russian Spiders by Kharitonov [Õàðèòîíîâ, 1932, 1936]. But later I decided to include in my new catalogue all available data since the 18th century. Materials given herein are the first more or less complete results of my project started in 1981. The aim of this project is compilation of literature data, with some criticism. A bibliography comprises over 1,900 papers and books since the 18th century until August 1996. A card catalogue of local/regional data is also complete, but publication of all materials (comparable in volume with P.Bonnets Bibliographia araneorum) remains impossible, first of all due to purely technical reasons. Besides that, local faunistical data are sometimes very diffi- cult to verify, since many authors do/did not keep their collections properly. Some materials, like E. Strands (Riga) or S.A. Beers (Mos- cow), are lost, some others are inaccessible. Among the two recently published critical catalogues [Eskov, 1994; Esyunin & Efimik, 1996], the former is based mostly on orig- inal data, whereas the latter is the result of a meticulous re-examina- tion of the well-preserved spider collection of the Perm State Uni- versity founded by famous Russian arachnologists, D.M. Fedotov and D.E. Kharitonov, in 1910s-1920s. No-one who intends to study some spiders from Russia and/or other republics of the former USSR can escape reference to the main Russian/Soviet arachnological depositoria listed here. 1. Zoological Museum of the Moscow State University. Numer- ous type materials of A. Kroneberg [Êðîíåáåðã, 1875], K. Eskov, A. Tanasevitch, Yu. Marusik, D. Logunov, K. Mikhailov, S. Esyunin, etc. A lot of sorted and unsorted material is available for study, mainly from the Caucasus, Siberia and Vietnam. 2. Zoological Institute, Russian Academy of Sciences, Saint-Pe- tersburg. Mostly old collections, including materials identified by A. Grube, V. Kulczyñski, D. Kharitonov (part), etc. Types of V. Ovtsharenko. 3. Chair of Invertebrates, Perm State University. Type materials of D. Kharitonov, S. Esyunin (part). Basic collection from the Urals. 4. Zoological Museum, Institute of Animal Taxonomy and Eco- logy, Siberian Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (Novosi- birsk). Mainly Siberian and Middle Asian materials. Types of D. Lo- gunov (part). 3 5. Institute of Zoology, National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Kiev. Regional collections. 6. Yuri M. Marusiks collection, Magadan. Well-identified Siberi- an and Middle Asian spiders. Some smaller collections are housed in Ulan-Ude, Khabarovsk (Russia), Alma-Ata (Kazakhstan), Bishkek (Kirghizia), etc. My short catalogue comprises three chapters. The first one is some necessary calculations of the spider species number in the post-Soviet republics and physiographical regions. Similar materials have already been published, but the data reflect the state of August 1989 [Ìèõàéëîâ, 1992á], as of August 1995 [Mikhailov, 1996a], as of February 1996 [Ìèõàéëîâ, 1996à]. Some decrease in numbers, especially for the European part (Carpathians, etc.), is a result of establishing more synonyms and finding more doubtful identifica- tions. New calculations given herein are updated as of August 1996. The second chapter is a checklist of spiders. I hope nothing has been missed, since my colleagues checked previous versions of this list. The spider genera and species are arranged alphabetically; only necessary short footnotes are given. The third part is a literature index. Not only direct citations, but all publications regarding the Russian/Soviet spider fauna are includ- ed. I add also other (extra-Soviet) papers of Russian authors, as well as pertinent foreign publications. I am deeply obliged to my colleagues and friends Drs. Yu.M. Marusik (Magadan), A.V. Tanasevitch (Moscow), and D.V. Logunov (Novosibirsk) for valuable and numerous comments on this book, especially on the checklist. I am also grateful to Drs. K.Yu. Eskov (Moscow), A.A. Zyuzin (Alma-Ata) and V.I. Ovtsharenko (St.Peters- burg) for their remarks on earlier versions of my card catalogue. Compilation of the tremendous bibliographical index would have been impossible without a flow of papers and copies from all my Russian/Soviet and a number of foreign colleagues. Among them, I would like to particularly thank Drs. S.L. Esyunin (Perm), N.Yu. Pol- chaninova (Kharkov) and K.V. Evtushenko (Kiev) who supplied me with some rare publications. Other invaluable sources of information are the Russian State Library (formerly the Lenin Library, Mos- cow), the libraries of the Moscow State University, of the Moscow Society of Naturalists, and of the Zoological Institute, Russian Acad- emy of Sciences (St.Petersburg). I was lucky to find some more rare 4 papers during my stay at the Institute of Zoology, Polish Academy of Sciences (Warsaw), under Prof. J. Prószyñskis supervision. I great- ly appreciate the bibliographical help of my father, Dr. G.K. Mikhailov (Moscow), and of Dr. T. Kronestedt (Stockholm, Sweden). Linguistic help of Drs. S.I. Golovatch and V.A. Spiridonov (Mos- cow) is also deeply acknowledged. The work is supported in part through the INTAS grant 94-3708. 5 METHODOLOGY No comments are necessary to Chapter 1. A checklist of spiders (Chapter 2) is actually an extraction from a complete card catalogue. Each spider species included is supplied with an attribution both to main physiographical areas delimited after Gvozdetskiy [Ãâîçäåöêèé, 1968], and to post-Soviet republics. The physiograph- ical areas and republics are coded by Russian letters and abbrevia- tions, respectively. The sequence of references is as follows: Physiographical areas (see also Map 1). À Atlantic-Arctic insular area, Á Fennoscandia (Karelian-Kola area),  Russian Plain, Ã1 Novaya Zemlya and Vaigach islands, Ã2 Urals (delimited in a way different from Esyunin & Efimik, 1996), Ä Carpathians, Å1 Crimea, Å2 Caucasus, Æ1 Armenian Upland, Æ2 Kopetdagh Mts, Ç+È mountainous Middle Asia, Ê deserts of Middle Asia, Ë Kazakhstan hills, Ì West Siberia, Í+Î Middle Siberia, Ï mountains of South Siberia, Ð northeastern Siberia, Ñ1 continental Far North-East (without Kamchatka), Ñ2 Kamchatka, Ñ3 northern Kurile Islands, Ñ4 Commander Islands, Ò1 continental Southern Far East (Amur-Maritime area), Ò2 Sakhalin and Moneron islands, Ò3 southern Kurile Islands.

Biodiversity Data Journal 9: e69924. https://doi.org/10.3897/BDJ.9.e69924 Abstract Background Long-term monitoring of invertebrate communities is needed to understand the impact of key biodiversity erosion drivers (e.g. habitat fragmentation and degradation, invasive species, pollution, climatic changes) on the biodiversity of these high diverse organisms. The data we present are part of the long-term project SLAM (Long Term Ecological Study of the Impacts of Climate Change in the natural forest of Azores) that started in 2012, aiming to understand the impact of biodiversity erosion drivers on Azorean native forests (Azores, Macaronesia, Portugal). In this contribution, the design of the project, its objectives and the first available data for the spider fauna of two Islands (Pico and Terceira) are described.

    5th Symposium Conference Volume for Research in Protected Areas pages 389 - 398 10 to 12 June 2013, Mittersill Natural Hazards – Hazards for Nature? Avalanches as a promotor of biodiversity. A case study on the invertebrate fauna in the Gesäuse National Park (Styria, Austria) Christian Komposch, Thomas Frieß & Daniel Kreiner Abstract Avalanches are feared by humans and considered “catastrophic” due to their unpredictable and destructive force. But this anthropocentric perspective fails to capture the potential ecological value of these natural disturbances. The Gesäuse National Park is a model-region for investigations of such highly dynamic events because of its distinct relief and extreme weather conditions. This project aims to record and analyse the animal assemblages in these highly dynamic habitats as well as document succession and population structure. 1) Dynamic processes lead to one of the very few permanent and natural vegetationless habitat types in Central Europe outside the alpine zone – i. e. screes and other rocky habitats at various successional stages. In addition to the tight mosaic distribution of a variety of habitats over larger areas, avalanche tracks also offer valuable structures like dead wood and rocks. Remarkable is the sympatric occurrence of the three harvestmen species Trogulus tricarinatus, T. nepaeformis und T. tingiformis, a species diversity peak of spiders, true-bugs and ants; and the newly recorded occurrence of Formica truncorum. 2) The presence of highly adapted species and coenoses reflect the extreme environmental conditions, specific vegetation cover and microclimate of these habitats. Several of the recorded taxa are rare, endangered and endemic. The very rare dwarf spider Trichoncus hackmani is a new record for Styria and the stenotopic and critically endangered wolf-spider Acantholycosa lignaria is dependent on lying dead wood.

    Behavioral Ecology Symposium ’96: Cushing 165 MYRMECOMORPHY AND MYRMECOPHILY IN SPIDERS: A REVIEW PAULA E. CUSHING The College of Wooster Biology Department 931 College Street Wooster, Ohio 44691 ABSTRACT Myrmecomorphs are arthropods that have evolved a morphological resemblance to ants. Myrmecophiles are arthropods that live in or near ant nests and are considered true symbionts. The literature and natural history information about spider myrme- comorphs and myrmecophiles are reviewed. Myrmecomorphy in spiders is generally considered a type of Batesian mimicry in which spiders are gaining protection from predators through their resemblance to aggressive or unpalatable ants. Selection pressure from spider predators and eggsac parasites may trigger greater integration into ant colonies among myrmecophilic spiders. Key Words: Araneae, symbiont, ant-mimicry, ant-associates RESUMEN Los mirmecomorfos son artrópodos que han evolucionado desarrollando una seme- janza morfológica a las hormigas. Los Myrmecófilos son artrópodos que viven dentro o cerca de nidos de hormigas y se consideran verdaderos simbiontes. Ha sido evaluado la literatura e información de historia natural acerca de las arañas mirmecomorfas y mirmecófilas . El myrmecomorfismo en las arañas es generalmente considerado un tipo de mimetismo Batesiano en el cual las arañas están protegiéndose de sus depre- dadores a través de su semejanza con hormigas agresivas o no apetecibles. La presión de selección de los depredadores de arañas y de parásitos de su saco ovopositor pueden inducir una mayor integración de las arañas mirmecófílas hacia las colonias de hor- migas. Myrmecomorphs and myrmecophiles are arthropods that have evolved some level of association with ants. Myrmecomorphs were originally referred to as myrmecoids by Donisthorpe (1927) and are defined as arthropods that mimic ants morphologically and/or behaviorally.

Additionally the effects of small-scale microhabitat heterogeneity of managed and unmanaged forests were determined by analysing the spider assemblages of three different microhabitat structures (i. vegetation, ii. dead wood. iii. litter cover). The spider were collected in a block design by pitfall traps (n=72) in a 4-week interval. To reveal key environmental factors affecting the spider distribution abiotic and biotic habitat parameters (e.g. vegetation parameters, climate parameters, soil moisture) were assessed around each pitfall trap. A TWINSPAN analyses separated pitfall traps from the natural forest from traps of the managed forest. A subsequent discriminant analyses revealed that the temperature, the visible sky, the plant diversity and the mean diameter at breast height as key discriminant factors between the microhabitat groupings designated by The TWINSPAN analyses.
