Lepthyphantes pallidus
A small species which prefers caves, cellars etc. Lepthyphantes pallidus is quite distinctive in colouration, as the two examples show. These were found down an old underground water reservoir at Red Hill near Eakring in April 2010, making a small sheet web in what was virtually total darkness.
