Uzbekistan is a landlocked country in Central Asia. Uzbekistan has a rich and diverse natural environment. However, decades of questionable Soviet policies in pursuit of greater cotton production have resulted in a catastrophic scenario with the agricultural industry being the main contributor to the pollution and devastation of both air and water in the country.

Uzbekistan has the 118th most diverse opilionofauna in the world with less than 10 species recorded.

This category is for harvestmen officially recorded from Uzbekistan, repositories of Uzbekistan Opiliones and authors who worked on Uzbekistan opilionofauna.
