| Abstract | ||||
| Although spiders have been such a center of interest, the current knowledge on them especially in Upper Egypt is still scarce. Thus, the present study deals with a key to facilitate the identification of terrestrial spiders by using their morphological characteristics. Spider's samples were hand-picked during the period (from December, 2015 till November 2016). A total number of 3457 specimens of spiders was collected from six different sites covering Assiut Governorate. They belonged to 47 species from 42 genera that fall in 22 families. This key deals with the identification of spiders to the family level. | ||||
