A few more spiders
The fearsome, large jawed, Pachygnatha clercki. This is a male because it has the large swollen palps. It's about 8mm long in reality.
If the chap below is looking a bit nervous, it's because the fearsome, muscley creature with the big jaws is his date! Erigone longipalpis.
This is the palp of a male Centromerita bicolor. It's about 0.5mm long.
