A faunistic database on the spiders of the Caucasus
I uploaded a new article on two new Drassodes species from Dagestan: Drassodes archibensis Ponomarev & Alieva, 2008 and D. dagestanus Ponomarev & Alieva, 2008.
Ponomarev, A. V. & Alieva, S. V. (2008): New species of spiders of the genus Drassodes Westring, 1851 (Aranei: Gnaphosidae) of Dagestan. Caucasian Entomological Bulletin. 4 (3): 255-257
"... a thorough collecting of Arachnids in Transcaucasia would yield a magnificent prey because, namely in spiders, an astonishing richness in both individuals and species made itself noticeable." L. Koch (1878)
