Abstract
During two years of research on the epigeic fauna in agroecosystems of northern Serbia, which was conducted as a part of SEE-ERA NET PLUS project no. 51, 5488 spider specimens were collected at three fields with oilseed rape (Brassica napus var. oleifera), turnip rape (Brassica rapa x chinensis) and winter wheat (Triticum aestivum) as subsequent crop at Stari Zednik (Vojvodina). A total of 62 species from 15 families were identified. Pardosa agrestis and Xysticus kochi were the dominant species in the studied fields. Spider families with significant presence were Lycosidae, Linyphiidae, Thomisidae, Gnaphosidae, Theridiidae and Philodromidae. Seven species are new to the spider fauna of Serbia.

Data on spider fauna in northern regions of Serbia are still insufficient, from crop fields in particular
In this paper we present a brief report on the spider fauna from arable fields in northern Serbia adjacent to the village Stari Žednik in the Vojvodina
Spiders were collected from October 2010 until June 2012, during the growing period of oilseed rape (Brassica napus var. oleifera) including turnip rape (B. rapa x chinensis) trap crop strips, and on winter wheat (Triticum aestivum), grown in crop rotation with oilseed rape from October 2011 until June 2012
