Possible Linyphia triangularis? - Neriene radiata
Southern, Maine, USA
July 3, 2004
I have been finding this particular type of spider in abundence this year and don't recall ever seeing them before in this area. I have been doing some studying and am starting to think that it is posible they may be Linyphia triangularis but I'm not positive so I am trying to get a more positive ID. It seems that this spider species has moved in and taken over and from what I have read of the Linyphia triangularis that is the way they operate. Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks.
