| Abstract | ||
| A study was carried out on spiders associated with broad bean and sugarcane in the Aswan governorate, Egypt, for two consecutive years (2021–2022). The number of spiders per month was estimated during the study period to track their distribution throughout the year. The data demonstrated that 19 families were deployed to the Aswan governorate over two consecutive years. The data noted that Family members of Philodromidae, Theridiidae, Lycosidae, Eutichuridae, Salticidae, and Scytodidae were found during the two years (2021–2022) in Kom Ombo and Draaw, where population density and frequency of occurrence are high relative to the overall number of individuals. The population density and frequency of family members belonging to Linyphiidae, Thomisidae, Gnaphosidae, Araneidae, and Filistatidae were moderate, whereas the families of other spiders had the lowest recorded numbers, densities, and frequency of occurrence. | ||
