Description
Spiders comprise 20-80% of predatory fauna (Ferguson et al., 1984) and are important in controlling dangerous pests (Horner, 1972). Although different from most natural associations, cropland spider complexes resemble meadow communities and their diversity varies from tens to more than 300 species. About 20 species, referred to as agrobionts (Luczak, 1979), are common to all European agroecosystems.
