Images of this species taken right across the Devon and Cornwall region. Species is often found under rocks and stones, and on the sides of overhangs on the lowershore.

The main objective of this website is in furthering environmental awareness and education through the medium of photography. To increase awareness and access to the wildlife of the region and help

people find and identify it. Sometimes the difference between species is obvious but many species can only be determined by observing microscopic characteristics that are specific to any one species.
