Description

This paper provides the first annotated species list of spiders presently known from Gondwana Private Game Reserve, a reserve recognised as a Cape Floral World Heritage Site in the Western Cape. A total of 148 species from 106 genera and 33 families were recorded and photographed. The most species-rich families are the Araneidae (32 spp.), Thomisidae (20 spp.) and Salticidae (17 spp.). Several species are possibly new to science. The conservation status and level of endemicity, based on their known distribution, are provided for each species.
