Spiders in the animal atlas
Reptiles.ge is adding spider profiles using the same evidence rules as the rest of the atlas: named sources, no invented regional maps.
Country occurrence here rests on Otto 2022’s Caucasian spiders database and the Ilia State University biodiversity database. This hub is not a substitute for the 659-species national checklist.

Each category gathers related species on one guide page — then sends you to the full profile.
FAQ
What people ask about spiders here
Short answers — depth lives on profiles.
No. This hub publishes individual species pages as they are written. Otto 2022 remains the reference for the full fauna.
One profile so far: the wasp spider (Argiope bruennichi), an orb-weaver with yellow-and-black bands. The list is growing.
Spider pages use the same species-profile structure. They are part of the animal atlas of Georgia, not a complete national arachnofauna list.
Only when a profile has named regional records. The wasp spider page colours regions from named localities in Otto 2022.
No. Watch from a distance. The wasp spider is not a medical risk to people, but do not pick up wild spiders.
