Spider fauna of Mt. Gajisan in Miryang, Gyeongsangnam-do was investigated from June to October. Collecting spiders was made by sweeping, beating, sieving and pitfall trapping. Total 66 species of 59 genera belonging to 20 families were identified from 317 collected spiders. Species richness was high in Salticidae (12 species, 20.0%), Theridiidae (8 species, 12.1%), Linyphiidae (5 species, 7.6%), Araneidae, Corinnidae, Gnaphosiade and Thomisidae (4 species, 6.1% repectively), Tetragnathidae, Amaurobiidae and Philodromidae (3 species, 4.5% repectively). Zoogeographical species were 1 Pantropical species (1.5%), 4 Palearctic species (6.1%) and 3 Korean endemic species (4.5%). This result will be a valuable monitoring data in comparative study of mountain spiders.
