Resumen

Como artrópodos depredadores, las arañas desempeñan roles esenciales en el equilibrio del ecosistema y actúan como bioindicadores. Para contribuir a la comprensión de la diversidad de arañas en el noreste de Argelia (provincia de Annaba), se realizó un estudio de la fauna de arañas en sitios forestales y urbanos durante dos años consecutivos utilizando el método de "recolección manual". Se identificaron un total de 879 arañas adultas (681 hembras y 198 machos), representando 25 familias y 67 especies. El Salticidae Plexippus paykulli (Audouin, 1826) fue la especie más abundante, con 127 especímenes recolectados. Las familias más abundantes fueron Salticidae y Araneidae, con 171 y 139 individuos, respectivamente. El índice de Shannon-Weaver varió de 2.17 a 3.68 bits en los diferentes sitios, mientras que los valores de equidad variaron de 0.60 a 0.75. Este estudio amplió significativamente las especies de arañas conocidas en la provincia de Annaba de 96 a 138.
