Spiders of the Genus Clubiona (Araneae : Clubionidae) from Punjab, Pakistan

Spider fauna of the genus Clubiona was surveyed during 1996 to 1998 and 2000 from 25 collection sites of 19 districts of the province of Punjab. Collection was done by jarring and handpicking from the foliage of 26 different host plants including forest plantations, crops, and orchards, ornamental and wild plants. In all, 240 specimens (99 females, 62 males and 79 Imm) were captured representing five species. Of these one species (Clubiona kasurensis ) is new to science and one species ( Clubiona filicata , O.
