Textrix denticulata, the toothed weaver,[2] is a funnel web spider of the family Agelenidae found in much of Europe.
An older name coined by Martini & Goeze in 1778, Aranea cruciger, has been declared a nomen oblitum, allowing Olivier's later name to stand.
The head is narrow, with steep sides, not unlike wolf spiders of the genus Pardosa.
There are vague, somewhat reddish chevrons due to the relatively thinner coating of hairs between the horseshoe mark and the posterior spotting which causes the background colour of the abdomen to be visible.
[2] In Great Britain it is found on stony ground, in rocky crevices, on low bushes and under bark, both inland and in coastal areas.
