Abstract
Spiders are a group of most diverse organism. There hasn’t been any research done on the spider fauna in Lohara Village, district Chandrapur, despite the fact that spiders are a group of the most diversified organisms and can play a very important role in regulation of insect population in any ecosystem. A survey was carried out during January 2022 to December 2022at three different sites in Lohara village near District Chandrapur. A total of 21 spider species belongs to 16 genera of 10 families were collected. The spider survey is useful to know the spider population in the given habitat and generating baseline data of these least studied groups of arthropods i.e. spiders. They also act as effective bio-control agents due to their non-specific feeding habits and hence are beneficial to crops and the economy of the region. This data can serve as the foundational documentation for upcoming Maharashtra research project.
