摘要：

The game reserve of Zeralda located in northern Algeria, at about 30 km West of Algiers, covers an area of 1078 ha of which 460 ha are mainly Pinus halepensis natural forest, with planted stands of Pinus pinea and Pinus canariensis. This mixed forest is favourable to the invertebrate fauna in general and the soil fauna in particular. The sampling was done using pitfalls traps. A total of 48 spider species were collected, belonging to 33 genera and 17 families. The results showed no difference in species richness between the three forest types but there were differences between closed and open forests on the one hand and between pure and mixed forests on the other. Abiotic factors such as soil humidity, pH as well as vegetation cover had an impact on some species. Open sites with dense herbaceous cover are the richest and the most diverse and provided favourable ecological niches for the rarest species.
