New Contributions to the Study of Spiders (Arachnida, Araneae) in Badajoz (Extremadura, Spain)
Abstract
This study expands the knowledge of the spider fauna in the province of Badajoz (Extremadura), a region in which
this group remains largely unexplored. A total of 160 individuals were captured and identified, belonging to 22 families, 47
genera, and 54 species. Of these, 33 represent new records for the province, and 20 also constitute the first records for the
autonomous community of Extremadura, raising the total number of recorded species in Badajoz to 128.
