Abstract
A checklist of 76 spider species in 57 genera and 17 families from the Katunskiy State Nature Biosphere Reserve, Republic of Altai, Russia is provided, with 35 species representing new records to the reserve. Over 60% of the reserve’s spider fauna are Holarctic, Palaearctic or Palaearctic-West Nearctic species; 19% are West-Palearctic and Euro-Siberian ones, and remaining 16% are purely Siberian and East Palaearctic species. Acantholycosa zinchenkoi Marusik, Azarkina & Koponen, 2004 is reported from the fauna of Russia for the first time. A previously unknown male is described and illustrated for Oreonetides sajanensis Eskov,1991.
Taking into account the new data, the spider fauna of the Katunskiy Reserve currently
consists of no less than 164 species.
Key words: highland biota, list of spiders, new records, unknown male, Katunskiy Mt. Ridge, South Siberia.
