Abstract

The spider families Cheiracanthiidae, Clubionidae and Gnaphosidae from areas of mainland Greece are examined. In total 72 species were recorded, belonging to Cheiracanthiidae (1 species), Clubionidae (1 species) and Gnaphosidae (70 species). Marinarozelotes cumensis (Ponomarev, 1979) is recorded from Greece for the first time. Habitat preferences of the dominant species are discussed. A zoogeographic analysis focusing on those areas where sampling was more complete, reveals conspicuous similarities to both the European and the eastern spider fauna.
