Maybe Asagena phalerata!

Asagena phalerata doesn't occur in my country, so I don't know this spider. In Slovenia there's only A. phalerata in the genus Asagena. The spider is often found near nests of ants.

According to the Benelux spider distribution maps, it is found in the Netherlands (http://www.tuite....0phalerata) Smile. We have it here, too.

How stupidSmile I searched on www.nederlandssoortenregister.nl, which contains all Dutch species for Asagena, but I should change it to Steatoda. I never saw the species because there are no suitable biotopes near to my villageSad
