Nice pictures! The Araneus sp. is probably either A. angulatus or A. circe.
Do you have dorsal shots of salticids 1 and 3? Number 2 is probably an Aelurillus sp.

The last one is a Sparassidae. Was it photographed in Turkey? It could be a juvenile Eusparassus sp., but i have some doubts about it since pattern and overall habitus is not really consistent. Heteropoda variegata is recorded for your country. I have no idea of how it looks like though, but it is a possibility.

Anyways, here are some more from me:

Stegodyphus sp. (Eresidae)

Allocosa oculata (Lycosidae)

Lycosa tarantula (Lycosidae)

Saitis barbipes male (Salticidae)

Segestria florentina (Segestriidae)

Time to bring this thread up a bit. Wouldn't it be suitable for a sticky?
By the way, fatich's last Sparassidae is indeed a juvenile H. variegata (http://backend.araneae.unibe.ch/galleryimages/2929/29290001.jpg).

Loxosceles rufescens
