    Not sure, but it looks like one and I haven't brought my spider book with me.

    It was about 1cm in length.

    Is this another pic of her?

    I guess your little friend also has an egg sac there!

    (Hope she wasn't in the house - as there are going to be a lot more of her type soon!)

    She still looks pretty ugly, Rolf!

    And that sure looks like an egg sac - so I'd keep my running shoes handy if I were you!

    Don't worry Catherine, it was in a clearing in the woods, but i have to say that I have never seen so many spiders, the place was full of them.

    Well I've looked and looked, but it could still be one of two or three different types.

    Favourite at the moment is Pandosa amentata.
