dc.description Urbanization is often associated with the loss of habitats for many species but the pattern of invertebrate abundance in increasingly human-dominated urban areas is less well documented particularly for the expanding urban Africa. This study investigated the composition and community structure of spiders in relation to human activities at the foot of the Uluguru Mountains in Morogoro city, Tanzania. Three different sampling methods: pitfall trapping, sweep netting and active searching were used to collect spiders in the study area and to allow comparison between structurally different habitat sites. Spider abundance differed significantly
