Photographed on some kind of exotic tree in a hotel garden in the East of the Netherlands on 23 September 2006. There were many of them in cracks and crevices all over the tree's trunk.

Nice fly: it is called Textrix denticulata (Agelenidae), Dutch name: Staartspin = Tail Spider, because of the long spinners, very common in stables, old houses etc, See you, Aart Noordam

Nice "fly" a "fly" without wings and has 8 legs. just kidding!!! I mistaked too before. Now, seriously. I agree: this is an Agelenidae spider. Textrix sp. but how could you say is this denticulata?..

Hello, Jorge! but how could you say is this denticulata?.. Simply because it is the only Textrix species so far north? At least here in Germany it is the only recorded species, all other are (west)mediterranean.

ah... So very probable to be (99%) T. denticulata. It could be a new species. But very, very improbable. However here in Portugal we have 3 species of Textrix. They are: Textrix caudata L. Koch, 1872 Textrix denticulata (Olivier, 1789) Textrix pinicola Simon, 1875 You could confirm in this very trust site. It is the only site in Portuguese totally and very trust about spiders: http://aranhas.in...&Itemid=41 click on each species and you will spot a record of locations where these spiders were reported.

We have a rather similar here in Germany: http://www.spider...index2.htm The only species Textrix denticulata is nevertheless very widespread here: 0http://www.spide...EX_DEN.HTM But I must admit, I never found one, yet.

Hi Juergen I like the german site, but, I think it should have more info about spiders. A friend of mine - professional arachnologist and biologist - is preparing a great new version of aranhas.info. It will be releasead very soon. I'm helping too to build the site with photos, distribution of spiders, biological specimens, revision , and other stuff. It will have many photos . If you see with care the best known regions are Algarve, Lisbon, Coimbra for Portugal. And Viseu will be very well known too. So far, there are known 47 spider families here. It is recognized 111 spider families over world by Platnik (awesome site he had). Edited by jorgemotalmeida on 01-10-2006 22:05 |
