Found another beautiful spider in my bathroom... I THINK it's Lepthyphantes sp - a money spider - but I'm always happy to be corrected... Those stripey socks! 😍 #SpiderID #LoveSpiders #spider #TurnFear2Fascination #UKgardenspiders BAS
Proper happy with this find in a customers garden! It's a Woodlouse Hunting spider, Dysdera crocata and by far the largest I have found to date. She measured an impressive 19mm body length. #TurnFear2Fascination #LoveSpiders
In the UK we have ten species of Xysticus that are colloquially known as Ground Crab spiders. Here I have included 5 species with inset epigyne images. #TurnFear2Fascination #LoveSpiders
Pardosa amentata
In the UK we have 15 species of Pardosa and each one has its own specific courtship display and with careful study, one can identify the species without the need to genitally determine the spider. #TurnFear2Fascination #SpiderLove #LoveSpiders

Hey guys 👋🏻
Following on from my previous post last week about the cellar spiders (Pholcus phalangioides).
I decided to go back into my garage to have a look at the progress of the developing egg sacks.
