Abstract

We present the results of a preliminary survey conducted in 2006 of the spider fauna of the small oceanic island of Anguilla in the Lesser Antilles. We found 26 species in 10 habitats at eight localities and in nests of the mud-dauber wasp Sceliphron (Spechidae). The most spider-diverse habitat was among the least natural: Roadside vegetation. This was equaled by the species found in nests of Sceliphron. Anguilla shares 12 known species with the islands of St. Kitts-Nevis, also in the Lesser Antilles.
