A common and widespread
Harvestman, regularly found on the walls of buildings in urban areas,
but it does occur in most other habitat types. It is the most likely
Harvestman to be found in open locations, often being found on former
pit tops and other brownfield sites, heathland and grassland throughout
Nottinghamshire. Recorder bias probably accounts for the lack of records
east of the River Trent but it is certainly present along the Trent
Valley. The distinctive male is illustrated in the top two photographs. |
