Description
The dataset contains 6,408 records of spiders’ (Arachnida: Araneae) occurrences from the Visimskiy Nature Biosphere Reserve (Middle Urals), what counts 278 species of 146 genera and about 28 460 individuals identified to species level. The vast majority of records are georeferenced and have crucial metadata as date, altitude, habitats (including succession stage if available), collecting method, sampling effort, so can be used in quantitative ecological research.
The dataset is formed on the complex soil- and litter-living invertebrates research mainly which was perforemd at 8 permanent sampling plots. This source has produced about 3/4 of occurrences. Another 1/4 were obtained as addition from temporary sampling plots and sporadic collecting by a variety of methods. Each permanent sampling plot has brief landscape-geograpical and geobotanical description. There was obvious succession on the permanent sampling plots so provided description are relevant at the collecting moment and reflect the relevant succestion stage. Weather data (absent in the dataset but available upon request) comes from field journals and the "Visim" meteorological station.

Couverture géographique
The Visimskiy Biosphere Reserve is located in the Sverdlovsk Region and captures three city districts: Gornouralskiy, Kirovgradskiy & Verkhniy Tagil. Originally, the reserve area was 9531 ha (95 sq.km) in 1971 after its establishment, and it was extended in 1973, 1980 & 2001 further, being 33497 ha (335 sq.km) currently. The territory is elongated in latitudinal direction. Its main part is situated on western macroslope of the Ural Mountain range, in upstream of the Sulyom river. A smaller part is located on the the eastern macroslope and includes watershed and upstream of the Vogulka river. Ural Mountains spread from North to South at more than 2000 km and are the border between Europe and Asia. The studied region, the Visimskiy Reserve, is located in the Middle Urals, the lowest part of Urals. The major part of the reserve lies on western macroslope and only minor part lies on watershed crest (Prokaev and Kuznetsova 1974). The climate here is typical for the temperate continental boreal zone. The yearly average air temperature is +1.1 °С and average annual precipitation is 598.5 mm, according to data provided by the "Visim" meteorological station from 1976 to 2022. The soddy-podzolic and brown forest soils are the most widespread soils on the reserve territory (Gafurov and Korkina 2021). According to forest vegetation subdivision, the reserve belongs to the south taiga county of the Middle Ural low-mountain province of the Ural forest-mountain area (in terms of Kolesnikov 1960). The primary vegetation is fir-spruce (Abies-Picea) forests here, and birch (Betula) forests are the most common derivative vegetation. Currently, the protected part of the Visimskiy Reserve is 335 sq.km. The buffer zone by 461 sq.km surrounds it. Forest cuts of different age, mostly on the middle stages of secondary succession, predominate at this buffer. There is a service road, rarely used, along the northern reserve border, which is closed to public access. There are no permanent living buildings within the reserve, but there are forest lodges for temporary stays. There is a small village "Bolshye Galashki" in buffer zone, 1 km near from western reserve border. Only three families live year-round here with a few more residing during the summer period.

Couverture taxonomique
The dataset includes occurrences of 278 spider species (what counts 146 genera and 20 families in total) (table). Of them, we provide 18 species of the Visimskiy Reserve for the first time: Agnyphantes expunctus (O.Pickard-Cambridge, 1875), Agroeca lusatica (L.Koch, 1875), Argyroneta aquatica (Clerck, 1757), Cheiracanthium punctorium (Villers, 1789), Clubiona pallidula (Clerck, 1757), Dictyna major Menge, 1869, Entelecara congenera (O.Pickard-Cambridge, 1879), Euophrys frontalis (Walckenaer, 1802), Haplodrassus umbratilis (L.Koch, 1866), Improphantes complicatus (Emerton, 1882), Lophomma punctatum (Blackwall, 1841), Pardosa prativaga (L.Koch, 1870), Talavera thorelli (Kulczyński, 1891), Tetragnatha dearmata Thorell, 1873, Thyreostenius parasiticus (Westring, 1851), Walckenaeria kochi (O.Pickard-Cambridge, 1873), Xysticus kochi Thorell, 1872, Zelotes electus (C.L.Koch, 1839). We exclude two species out this list (Pardosa palustris (Linnaeus, 1758) and Megalepthyphantes nebulosus (Sundevall, 1830)) because of mistakes in publications (Esyunin, Efimik, 2000 and Esyunin, Efimik, 1996a respectively).

Données sur le projet
Arachnological research is a part of Visimskiy Reserve research projects on complex study of soil- and litter-living invertebrates carried out within "Nature Chronicles" – conservation monitoring on the condition of ecosystems and its components on protected areas. The project is devoted to inventory and long-term monitoring of the epigean invertebrate animals, including mollusks (Mollusca), carabid beetles (Carabidae), carrion beetles (Silphidae) and other taxa. The aim of the article as a part of the project is to summarize all literature and material data about spiders in order to obtain an up-to-date list of spider species and occurrences. Also, some other results can be seen in the published literature (Esyunin and Efimik 1995, Esyunin and Ukhova 1996, Ukhova and Esyunin 1996, Esyunin et al. 1996, Esyunin et al. 2000, Ukhova 2001, Esyunin and Ukhova 2011).

| Description du domaine d'étude / de recherche | The vegetation of Visimskiy Reserve is primarily forested. Forests cover 87% of territory according to the 2000-2001 forest stock-taking, and are represented by both boreal and nemoral types. The reserve is situated within mountain taiga belt, which is divided into two sub-belts. Lower one (up to 400±50 m above-sea level) is colder and composed of temperate boreal dark-coniferous forests. Higher sub-belt is composed of nemoral and subnemoral forests (Kirsanov et al. 1979). The most detailed forest inventory has shown 11 types of primary associations (Kolesnikov et al. 1974). However, native fir-spruce (Abies-Picea) forests have been altered by the industrial development of the Ural region over the past 300 years. The remaining woodstand has been damaged in a mosaic pattern by catastrophic windthrow in 1995. Later, in 1998, the heavy forest fire has destroyed most of the woodstand, undergrowth and herb layer at all windthrown areas. The fire repeated in a few windthrown and untouched areas. After that, there were only three types of primary forests remain: ferns and grasses Abies-Picea forests, large-ferns Abies-Picea forests, Abies, Picea and Pinus sibirica forests with fern and horsetail. Recently, primary virgin forests cover only 3% of the reserve's territory (Sibgatullin 1987, Sibgatullin 2021) presented on peaks and slopes of mountains Bolshoy Sutuk, Maliy Sutuk, Dolgiy, Kuligi. The secondary woodstand assocoations are mixed uneven-aged forests, presented by Picea-Betula, Betula, Populus tremula. Some of post fire association with Chamaenerion angustifolium and Calamagrostis located on the Maliy Sutuk mountain have not been recovering with woodstand since the fires in 1998 and 2010 for a long time. Meadows occupy no more than 1% of the territory of reserve. They are formed on the former forest areas harvested for crop fields and haymaking grasslands. Some of meadows are about 300 years old. There are almost no bogs within the reserve. The long-term monitoring of soil and litter invertebrate complexes covers 8 permanent plots having unique abbreviations officially. They are established in primary ferns and grasses fir-spruce (Abies-Picea) forest (PZP-02 until 1995, PZP-19), in their derivatives - post-fire associations on the various succession stages (PZP-07, PZP-20), in secondary birch (Betula) forests formed after wood cutting (Lines 1, 2, 3 & 4). We describe all of them in details below. |
| Description du design | The data are based mainly on the complex soil- and litter-living invertebrates research, which was performed at 8 permanent sampling plots. This source has produced about 3/4 of the occurrences. Each sample has a brief landscape-geographical and geobotanical description. There was obvious succession on the permanent sampling plots, so the provided description are appropriate at the time of collecting and reflect the relevant succession stage. The last 1/4 occurrences were obtained as an addition from temporary sampling plots and sporadic collecting. The vast majority of records are georeferenced and have crucial metadata such as date, altitude, habitats (including succession stage if available), collecting method, sampling effort, so they can be used in quantitative ecological research. Weather data (absent in the dataset but available upon request) comes from field journals and the "Visim" meteorological station. |

Méthodes d'échantillonnage
All data about epigeobiont, soil- and litter-dwelling spiders come from pitfall-traps and litter sifting. Pitfall-traps were installed in a line of 10 ones usually (from 4 to 11). Their duration was 1–2 weeks typically (from 3 days to 3 weeks). Glass cans (an opening diameter is 75 mm), or plastic glasses (an opening diameter is 65 mm), filled by formaldehyde or acetic acid solution were used as traps. We sampled soil litter from surface of 50×50, 20×20 or 15×15 cm, sifted and investigated it on white plastic film. Spiders of herb layer were collected by entomological net sweeping. Quantitative samples come from 5 replications by 20 sweeps unless otherwise defined in the `samplingEffort` field. A small portion of faunistic material was picked by tree or shrub crown shaking and by manual collecting.

| Contrôle qualité | The collection is stored in the Perm State University (PSU). A few specimens are stored in the Zoological Museum of the Moscow State University (ZMMU). Esyunin S.L. has identified all the adult individuals to the species level. Juvenile individuals were identified to the species, genera or family level depending on informative value of somatic features (body size, shape and coloration, eyes configuration, chaetotaxy etc.). The taxonomical nomenclature accords the World Spider Catalog (2023). The collected material is being a base for more than 30 peer-reviewed articles and 13 reports on specialized conferences. |
