Abstract：Abstract: Wolbachia are widespread endosymbiotic bacteria of arthropods and nematodes. They manipulate the reproduction of their hosts, causing cytoplasmic incompatibility, parthenogenesis induction, feminization of genetic males and male killing. Here, the spiders of the families Salticidae, Agelenidae and Lycosidae from Mangshan were screened for Wolbachia infection by PCR. Wolbachia infection rates of Siler cupreus, Pardosa mionebulosa and Draconarius digitusiformis were 3.7%, 8.6% and 40.0%, respectively. The phylogenetic relationship of Wolbachia suggested that Wolbachia strains in S. cupreus, P. mionebulosa and D. digitusiformis belonged to Wolbachia supergroups G, B and A, respectively; Wolbachia strains in different spider families were closely related to each other. It was suggested that horizontal transmission of Wolbachia may be responsible for the phylogenetic incongruence.
