The aim of the present work was to investigate the abundance and seasonal dynamics of spiders in summer oilseed rape, wheat and two-year-old clover fields. The experiments were carried out in the experimental field of the Estonia Agricultural University in the summer of 2003. During the study period, 892 individuals of spiders were collected with pitfall traps. In all variants Lycosidae, Linyphiidae and Opiliones were dominating, but the total number of Opiliones was lower than the abundance of other dominating spider groups.
