Abstract

Spider fauna of urban landscapes in some countries remains unexplored enough. Cities of Kazakhstan are not exceptions. Meanwhile, spiders are one of the important components of ecological communities. One of the most common and most numerous families in terms of species diversity is Salticidae — the jumping spiders. In this study we provide new records of some jumping spider species from Almaty city. In result, we spotted 10 species belonging to 9 genera of Salticidae family in total. Attulus fasciger (Simon, 1880) was recorded for the first time for Kazakhstan range and Almaty city in particular. The illustrations of general morphology and copulatory organs of A. fasciger are also provided. The results are expected to be used for further studies of the spider fauna of Almaty region, as well as to update cadastral materials on the region.
