Abstract
Eighteen species of spiders in six families were collected fromtomato fields in Fayoum governorate. Population of these spidersreached up to 25 indiv./10 plants at the end of season (Nov.) in plotswith no chemical treatment. The correlation between spiderspopulation and Nesidicoris tenuis Reut (Hemiptera) the main prey inuntreated plots was significantly negative. Admiral (pyriproxyfen),Actacron (profenofos) and Pilarmate (methomyl), the three pesticidesrecommended for use against tomato pests caused highly significantreduction in spider populations. Pilarmate was the highest toxic tospiders followed by Actacron and the least was Admiral withreduction percentages of 85, 83 and 70%, respectively.
