Found on 27/09/10 at the Dolphin school in Hurst, Reading, UK.

It is one of the long legged species.

Any help with identification would be much appreciated.

Leiobunum blackwalli, it has pale rims to the eyes where L. rotundum has black rims but they have the reverse in between the eyes!

Also in the females of L. blackwalli the abdomen pattern is very characteristic.
