Can anyone tell me what type of spider this is? Appears to be carrying babies too.

Hi and a warm welcome to Nature UK.
Spiders aren't my field at all but we do have members on here that will be able to help.

Looks like one of the dark Pardosa species; but I can't go any further

Another spider for i.d. Seen at Bradfield Woods, Suffolk, on 29th May. Presumably a female, with egg case.

Is this Tegenaria domestic? Dark bands on legs are confusing me-among other things.

A young Tegenaria domestica would be my guess, assuming you found it indoors. There are some smallish Tegs which live outdoors

It doesn't look right for Teg silvestris which is the commonest of the outdoor ones, so I think it must be a young domestica

Is this Drassodes sp. (cupreus or lapidosus)? It was on the underside of a palm leaf in my garden at around 10.15 at night.

It's a Clubiona, note the wider eye spacing and different shaped cephalothorax (the front half of the body). Probably C. corticalis though I'm not sure.

Thanks a lot Alan I'm not overly keen on spiders but i'm sorry i didn't get closer to it now . This was an interesting little hole and web , i tickled the web a little but nothing appeared , i was reluctant to poke in a finger
