| Abstract: Distribution of jumping spiders (Salticidae: Araneae: Arachnida) in different states of India and union territories is presented herewith. A total of 352 species under 116 genera of Salticidae were recorded in all states and union territories of India except Daman and Diu and Dadra and Nagar Haveli. Maximum number of species were recorded from West Bengal (110 species) followed by Tamil Nadu (99 species), Kerala (92 species), Karnataka (92 species), Maharashtra (Maharashtra (84 species), Gujarat (66 species), Uttarakhand (49 species), Assam (44 species) and Odisha (44 species) and so on. Extensive survey for these spiders is required in states like Bihar, Chattisgarh, Haryana, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Telangana, and Uttar Pradesh which are poorly represented by these spiders. |
