The assemblages of herpetobion spiders from four habitats: two seven-year-old burns, spruce-birch and fir-spruce forests, were examined in the Visimskiy Reserve (Sverdlovsk Region) during May-September 2017 using pitfall-traps. The structure of the spiders population of burns significantly differs from that of forests in species composition, total occurrence rate (ind./100 trap-days), seasonal dynamics and composi-tion of the dominant species. Differences in the structure of the population are most pronounced in the summer. In summer spider assemblages of burns, the most abundant are Agyneta allosubtilis, Alopecosa pulverulenta, P. fulvipes, P. lugubris, P. riparia and Piratula hygrophila, in forests - Allomengea scopigera and Haplodrassus soerenseni.
