I know of no other white spider but Misumena vatia. I was checking the distribution yesterday and the northernmost location is Lincoln, although there are older sightings around Lincolnshire. You can check its distribution in the NBN gateway or in the British Arachnological Association website (links on the right of the blog).Africa Gomezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03501193251810926737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7294155481861267737.post-9383427893169197152011-04-04T23:10:52.141+01:002011-04-04T23:10:52.141+01:00I've found an all-white species of crab spider...I've found an all-white species of crab spider in hull before.
