Notes on Robertus arundineti
From Miscellaneous Notes on Spiders in the Doncaster Museum Arachnid Collections (1) by C.A. Howes
Robertus arundineti (0. P.-Camb) new V.C. 62 record
From The Newsletter No. 9 April 1974
A male sieved along with dozens of Hypomma bituberculatum (Wid)
from the tussocks of marram grass on the sand-dune system at Coatham,
Teesmouth 27/5/1973 by C.A.H. A coastal habitat would, however, seem
out of character, other Yorkshire records coming from inland moor, bog
or marsh habitats e.g. Askham Bog (Smith, C.J, 1971 Naturalist 18-23),
Malham (Duffey, E. 1963 Field Studies l._5 65-87) and Cautley Spout near
Sedbergh 8/7/1959 (Mackie, D.W. Pers. Comm).
