October 21st i took a picture of this very small - 3 or 4 mm - spider which I found in low foliage near a pond in my garden. Could anyone help me to identify it? Thank you in advance, Niek |

Hello, Niek! Not 100% sure (but 98%), but this seems to be is a male Linyphiid of species Linyphia hortensis (most likely; subadult, adult in spring) or probably Neriene clathrata. Both species have males of this habitus and colouration, with white markings at the front of the opisthosoma (abdomen). http://www.spider...nyphia.htm http://www.spider...eriene.htm (Scroll down for the males - the ones with the large pedipalps.)
