A contribution to the knowledge of spiders in wheat felds of Khorasan-e-Razavi Province, Iran
Te spider fauna of Iran is poorly known, particularly in the eastern parts of Iran, where there are still several areas that arenot well known. As a result of the study of spider fauna in organic and conventional wheat felds of Khorasan-e-Razavi Province during2011 2012, a total of 10 families, 18 genera, and 19 species were recorded. Among the specimens, Gnaphosa lucifuga (Walckenaer, 1802)and Uroctea limbata (C.L. Koch, 1843) were new for the Iranian spider fauna.
