Salticidae is the largest and one of the most diverse spider families. Considering how species diversity patterns vary across spatial gradients, this study aimed to determine the species diversity of salticids along an elevation gradient in WMSU-EFA, La Paz, Zamboanga City. Collection methods were beat netting and vial tapping. Forty-four species under 26 genera were documented. Phintella piatensis was the most abundant species. Leaf litter and leaf surfaces/foliages were the most preferred microhabitats. Data analysis using PAST 3.0 showed highest species diversity at mid-elevation (H’=3.39), high diversity at high elevation (H’=3.02), and the lowest diversity at low elevation (H’=2.57), thus showing a hump-shaped pattern. An even distribution was recorded. However, factors such as vegetation structure and habitat complexity appear to influence species diversity aside from elevation itself.
