Abstract :The spider fauna of Iran is poorly known, particularly in the eastern parts of Iran, where there are still several areas that are not well known. As a result of the study of spider fauna in organic and conventional wheat fields of Khorasan-e-Razavi Province during 2011-2012, a total of 10 families, 18 genera, and 19 species were recorded. Among the specimens, Gnaphosa lucifuga insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Walckenaer, 1802); and Uroctea limbata insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(C.L. Koch, 1843); were new for the Iranian spider fauna.Keywords : Key words Araneae, spider fauna, wheat fields, Khorasan e Razavi
