| .... | ||
| A Harvestman of gardens and woodlands, but there are no Sherwood records from the early 1900's until several were found on the wall of the Tourist Information Centre at Sherwood Heath in October and November 2009. Opilio parietinus is thought to be species in serious decline, due to the presence in the UK for some years now of the similar Opilio canestrinii (an invasive species) It's present UK status seems largely unknown, but is thought potentially to become extinct at sometime. These were found in a Worksop garden in October 2009 (top) and Sherwood Heath (bottom). | ||
