Alopecosa barbipes (Sundevall, 1833)  |
This female Alopecosa
barbipes turned out to be the first Sherwood Forest
NNR record. It was found on Budby South Forest in
September 2009 and also at Warsop Main Pit Top, where it
was found on a sunny, south-facing bank and where several
females had constructed their burrows. The spider has a
wide distribution across the UK, but is generally a
fairly local species. |
