| | | Spider ID Hi,
can anyone help me identify this spider? Invertebrates - Nick Burton Photography- powered by SmugMug
We cannot find it in our spider guide! The photo was taken at Wisby Nature Park in May 2009.
Thanks!

| | | Re: Spider ID It was pretty big (as big as any spider I ever saw in the UK), maybe 25mm.
It was at Wisby Nature Park last May. Quote:

| | | Re: Spider ID Looks to be Pisaura mirabilis - the Nursery Web spider. She appears to be gravid, hence the large abdomen.
No.9 Spider
