ASSEMBLAGES STRUCTURE AND SEASONAL ABUNDANCE DYNAMICS OF GROUND-DWELLING SPIDERS (ARANEI) IN THE RECOVERED LAND DISTURBED BY THE MINING INDUSTRY

Abstract

In total 68 species of spiders belonging to 17 families were recorded in the manganese quarry area of reclamation in Pokrov (Nikopol district, Dnepropetrovsk region). Gnaphosidae (19 species), Lycosidae (10 species), Thomisidae (8 species), Philodromidae and Salticidae (both 5 species) were the most species-rich families. Lycosidae was characterized by the greatest abundance. Trochosa robusta, Thanatus arenarius, Gnaphosa lucifuga and Alopecosa kovblyuki had the greatest relative abundance in herbal communities. T. robusta was the most abundant in forest plantation. The average value of the spider dynamic density was 31,4 individuals per 100 trap-days. Significant differences in the density dynamics of spiders in different types of technozems were not identified. Seasonal dynamics of spider abundance was characterized by a maximum in the last decade of April — the first decade of May with a significant decrease in the subsequent terms of sampling.

Key words

Ground-dwelling spiders, Aranei, species composition, assemblages structure, seasonal abundance dynamics.
