Hope you have a pleasant day :-D

note: examination of genitalia is the only method useful for an accurate identification of a species. However, Tenuiphantes males have a very small and complex pedipalp. accurate id of a Tenuiphantes could be extremely difficult for a beginner. I've added a photo of T. flavipes pedipalp at 4x microscopic zoom for illustration. Even a 4x zoom has trouble focusing on a Tenuiphantes pedipalp.

Happy spider hunting...
