| | | Unidentified spider with green(ish) and white abdomen
Stockgrove Country Park, Beds. 15th March 09.
On fence rail under Scots Pine. Help with identification appreciated - sorry this was only pic I got before it vanished into a crack.

My initial thought would be a Pachygnatha degeeri, he's carrying some quite large chelicerea there (not as big as a Tetragnatha spp, but they are related)

Thanks for your help with identification guys. This one seemed very nervous about my approach - it's quite interesting how different species react to a lens being poked in their face.
