Koch. 1936) - C. atropos (Walck., 1825), C. inermis (C.L. Koch, 1868) and C. terrestris (Wid., 1834). All these species often live together in some biotopes. The overlapping of spider niches is postulated and some factors allowing the species coexistence are discussed.},

	abstract = {Ground-living spiders were studied, using pitfall traps, in six habitats between 580 and 960 m (deciduous forest, fir forest, forest-line and three alpine mountain top sites) on Mont du Lac des Cygnes. Altogether 88 species of spiders were found during the study summer (June-mid-September 1985), of which 51 belonged to Linyphiidae (s. lat.), 9 to Lycosidae and 8 to Gnaphosidae. The highest species number and diversity were found in the forest-line habitat, the highest individual number on the main summit and the lowest in deciduous forest, the lowest site. Lycosidae and Gnaphosidae species and individuals characterized the alpine habitats, Linyphiidae (especially Linyphiinae) the forested sites and Amaurobiidae and Agelenidae the deciduous forest site. Erigoninae occurred commonly at all sites; their individual numbers were very high at coniferous forest sites. The dominant species in all three alpine habitats was Pardosa concinna, on the forest-line Hybocoptus gibbosus, in balsam fir forest Sisicottus montanus and in deciduous forest Amaurobius borealis. The material included several (sub)arctic-alpine species.},

	abstract = {In the Nylsvley Nature Reserve, in the South African savanna, the spider community in 320 abandoned mammal burrows was investigated. Three species, Agelena ocellata (Agelenidae), Euprosthenops proximus (Pisauridae) and Smeringopus pallidus (Pholcidae), coexisted in the burrows. The number of individuals and the number of species inhabiting the burrows increased with burrow size. Gerbil burrows were apparently too small to provide space for more than one individual of any of the three species. Only the burrows of springhares, warthogs, and antbears contained more than one spider. When artificial burrows were provided a rapid increase in settlement resulted. Competition for space therefore seems to be the determining factor influencing the population size. A relatively low number of prey items (136, in 119 webs) were found in agelenid webs only. Kleptoparasitic ants were observed stealing prey items from the webs.},

The species composition of the high mountain spider community was not well known and this is the first contribution to the problem. Concerning the altitudinal distribution, there are only 8 species occurring mainly in the high altitude zone, though a good number of species is present in the forest belt also and even some in lowlands. Characteristic for the highest sites are Diplocephalus foraminifer, Erigone pirini, Mecynargus paetulus, Lepthyphantes improbulus, Pardosa drenskii, Cryphoecapirini, Clubiona alpicola, Gnaphosa leporina. Species which are not found below the tree-line form the high mountain species complex, which is composed by euro-montane (3, 2.9\%), endemic (3, 2.9\%), holarctic (arctic-alpine) (1), and Palearctic (1) elements. The character of the high-altitude spider fauna of Central Stara planina mountain is Palearctic and mainly European.},
