One of those Linyphyidae in which the male has a funny-shaped head. Not got the right book here to suggest a name. Good to see a bit of palp action.B)

Maybe Trematocephalus? Not sure... I asked the german Arachnologists about it:

Hi Tony....glad to have satisfied your "palp action" needs, got 20+ more pics if you want them (plain brown envelope)!

Thanks for putting this on German Website Walter...wait to see if they can go any further with your suggestion.

Regards Roger
