Regular arachno-faunistic studies of West Kazakhstan Region started only in the 90s of the 20th century. To date, over 65 arachnological papers on this region have been published,. Yet, the spider fauna of West Kazakhstan Region remains incompletely studied. A list of 77 spider species collected in 2021-2022 from West Kazakhstan Region is provided. Three species - Mecynargus minutipalpis Gnelitsa, 2011, Neoscona spasskyi (Brignoli, 1983) and Rhysodromus hierosolymitanus (Levy, 1977), are recorded from Kazakhstan for the first time. Nineteen species are reported for West Kazakhstan Region for the first time, and 86 new district records are provided for 55 species. Baseed on the present results, a total number of spider species recorded from West Kazakhstan Region has raised to 274 species in 130 genera and 23 families. Three poorly known species, Evippa sjostedti Schenkel, 1936, M. minutipalpis and R. hierosolymitanus, as well as one jumping spider Attulus zimmermanni (Simon, 1877), are illustrated with photographs of their epigynes.

Текст научной статьи New data on the spider fauna of West Kazakhstan region (Arachnida: Araneae)
Regular arachno-faunistic studies of West Kazakhstan Region started only in the 90s of the 20th century. To date, over 65 arachnological papers on this region have been published, of which the majority are taxonomic revisions or reviews of various spider groups. Faunistic studies on spiders of this region are scarce. First, it is worth mentioning a series of works on the fauna of the Dzhanybek field station [Михайлов, 1985; Peterkina, 2009; Питеркина, Михайлов, 2009]. A checklist of spiders of this station accounts for 200 species, of which 9 have been described as new: Devade kazakhstanica Esyunin et Efimik, 2000; Improphantes contus Tanasevitch et Piterkina, 2007; Silometopus crassipedis Tanasevitch et Piterkina, 2007; Talanites mikhailovi Platnick et Ov-tsharenko, 1991; Thanatus mikhailovi Logunov, 1996; Tibiaster djanybekensis Tanasevitch, 1987; Trichoncoides striganovae Tanasevitch et Piterkina, 2012; Trichoncus villius Tanasevitch et Piterkina, 2007; Walckenaeria stepposa Tanasevitch et Piterkina, 2007. Two other relatively well-studied sites are Taipak (Kalmykovo before 1993) and Zhanakazan (Novaya Kazanka before 1993) Villages, from which 40 species have been recorded and four described as new: Alopecosa sciophila Ponomarev, 2008; Micaria charitonovi Mikhailov et Ponomarev, 2008; Thanatus jaikensis Ponomarev, 2007; Zodariellum volgouralensis (Ponomarev, 2007) [Пономарев, 2022]. Yet, the spider fauna of West Kazakhstan Region remains incompletely studied. A total number of the spider species reported from West Kazakhstan Region to date is 252 [Пономарев, 2022]. Compared to arachnofaunas of neighboring Astrakhan’, Volgograd, Rostov or Orenburg Regions [Пономарев, 2022; Esyunin, unpublished data], this number of species seems rather low. Thus, it is hardly surprising that relatively short field trips to West Kazakhstan Region by the second author have yielded 22 additional species (see below).
The purpose of this short faunistic note is to provide a list of the species collected during the 2021 and 2022 field trips to west Kazakhstan, with several poorly known species being illustrated and/or commented on.
Material and methods
The spiders reported herein were collected by the second author (AK) during his field trips to West Kazakhstan Region in the 2021 and 2022 summers. Details of all the localities visited are given below.

Stacks of colour images were manually generated using an Olympus OMD EM-10 digital camera, with a Panasonic Lumix H-H025 25 mm f/1.7 lens mounted on a Zeiss microscope. Digital images were prepared using Photoshop CS6 image stacking software. Studied specimens are shared between the Zoological Museum of the Moscow State University, Moscow, Russia (curator: K.G. Mikhailov) and the Zoological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg, Russia (curator: D.V. Logunov).

Conclusion
The present species list consists of 77 species belonging to 14 families, of which one genus ( Mecynargus Kulczyński, 1894; Linyphiidae) and three species - M. minutipalpis , N. spasskyi , R. hierosolymitanus - are new to the spider fauna of Kazakhstan, and 19 species are newly found in West Kazakhstan Region. Besides, 86 new district records were provided for 55 species.
Of the studied material, two species records ( N. spasskyi, R. hierosolymitanus ) represent the northernmost limits of the corresponding species’ ranges, those of specie M. minutipalpis - the easternmost range limit, and that P. mikhailovi - the south-westernmost limit.
Prior to this study 252 spider species were known from West Kazakhstan Region [Пономарев, 2022]. Baseed on the present results, a total number of spider species recorded from West Kazakhstan Region has raised to 274 species in 130 genera and 23 families.
