The research was conducted in northeast Gariyaband region (Chhura). The research deals with spider (Arachnida : Aranae) diversity in north-east Gariaband region that provides fundamental knowledge about spider species in the region and their conservation status on habitat. In the research, a total of 55 species belonging to 42 Genus under 11 families were recorded from August 2024 to October 2024 (3 months) in the study area. All spider species are collected from different part of the area, like trees, shrubs, grassland and surfaces. There are Araneidae and Salticidae. Both are dominant families that have high species numbers. Spiders are important for ecosystem. The presence of spider species in a place indicates the good ecosystem of that area.
