Description: The WSC describes Zygiella atrica as "common on the coast, rare in the mountains". We don't have coast or mountains in VC55 but there are around 100 well-distributed records for this species in the County database, so I wouldn't call it rare. In spite of that, it has managed to become a bogey species for me over the last two years. So much so that I was starting to doubt that I could identify this species correctly, that I was missing specimens as Zygiella x-notata. Tylan Berry didn't help by showing that Z. atrica grades into Z. x-notata morphologically, increasing my paranoia. Yesterday, on a pre-lockdown field trip, I was pretending a Gorse bush was Matt Hancock and giving it a damn good thrashing. As soon as this beauty hit the tray I knew immediately my wait was over. They do exist!. Date: 5 November 2020, 09:02. Source:
