Primary data of diversity of spiders in province Lori, Armenia KOSYAN Armine. Yerevan State University Faculty of Biology, E-mail [email protected] My research I did in Lori region of Armenia. Lori region is located in the North part of Armenia, bordering Georgia. The landscape is very different, lowland, mountainous, rocky steppe, semi-desert, and etc. I have collected spiders in the Spitak region of Lori Province. I started collecting spider species last year, from May of 2020. Spitak Region of Armenia. Trchkan Waterfall Village Mets Parni Pambak river and Saint Hovhannes Shrine Village Mets Parni Landscape I have collected 350 individuals from different habitats of the Lori Region and near 500 individuals from different parts of Armenia. For the database, I take location information (country, region, place), habitat information (GPS coordinates, altitude above sea level, vegetation type, habitat type), and collection information(collector, date, collecting methods, and temperature). Recently I started the identification of spiders. Among the studied samples, we find two species: Tegenaria domestica (Clerck, 1757) from Agelenidae family and Trochosa robusta (Simon, 1876) from Lycosidae family, which are new records for the fauna of Armenia. To be sure, we need to check this later Barcoding of spiders in CaBOL project. I hope we will have many new species for Armenia because the spider's species of Armenia not studied well. The result of this study will be getting new information about spiders of Armenia Our aims are: Creation of database of spiders of Armenia (species, regions, location, date, habitat, vegetation type, collector) for collection of spiders from all Armenia Creation of collection of spiders from all parts of Armenia Barcoding of spiders in framework of CABOL project Moreover, the results of the study will be used as part of my Ph.D. thesis Thank you for your attention.

According to Armenia’s intended nationally determined contribution (INDC) submitted to the UNFCCC in 2015, the country (respectively the Kotayk Province) intends to limit aggregate GHG emissions to 633 million tCO2e for the period between 2015 and 2050. An annual average of GHG emission per capita aims to be limited to 5.4tCO2e for the period of 2015-2050, while Armenia’s GHG emissions comprised 2.14tCO2e per capita in 2010. TOOLS Armenia (respectively the Kotayk Province) outlines some of the priority sectors in mitigation and adaptation which are as follows. Energy supply Transport Land use and forestry Water resource management Energy supply The energy sector in Armenia has achieved a range of reforms over the past decades, which have led to a strong payment discipline with collections for electricity (100% of sales), reforms for the energy subsidies and a competent regulatory agency put in place for the sector.
