Keywords:
Spider diversity, Nagpur district, Central IndiaAbstract
Spider diversity is significant because spiders play a key role in terrestrial ecosystems as predators and biological control agents. The present study was conducted to explore the composition of spider diversity in various localities of Nagpur district of Central India. A total of 106 species belonging to 71 genera under 18 families were recorded from the various habitats. This study providing the checklist cited with their habitats and localities which will help the other researchers in their work.
