cool stuff. to be fair, all these scientific names don't mean much to me as i don't know much about spiders at all, but thanks anyway, it helps on the road to understanding them!
the crab spider was really odd, quite grisly watching it munching away on that fly too!
thanks!

...'Collins Field Guide - Spiders of Britain and Northern Europe, Michael J. Roberts' has good reviews I've heard.
