In a first checklist of spiders occurring on Galapagos (RoTH & Ga/apa bel/a (GERTSCH & PECK, 1992)
CRAIG, 1970), 76 species were listed, of which 50 were already Metagonia bella vista GERTSCH & PECK, 1992
known to science. Metagonia reederi GERTSCH & PECK, 1992
From 1982 onwards, the authors started a long-term study of Modisimus culicinus (SIMON, 1893)
the arachnid fauna of the archipelago. At the end of the SO's a Modisimus modicus (GERTSCH & PECK, 1992)
Canadian team (S. PECK and co-workers) started with a sys-/ Modisimus so/us GERTSCH & PECK, 1992
tematic investigation of the terrestrial arthropods of the islandS: *P hysocyclus globosus (TACZANOWSKI, 1873)
This resulted at the end of this decade in a checklist counting
124 species of which 73 were formerly described (BAERT &
MAELFAIT, 1989). As both teams worked in good cooperation, SEGESTRIIDAE
sampling efforts were doubled during the 90's. This leads the
Ariadna tarsalis (BANKS, 1902)
need of an updated checklist at the beginning of the new
millennium. Of the 158 species presented here, 115 have been
properly described. The species indicated with an asterisk are
