Face it, this lichen crab spider is pretty scary looking (Picture: bnps.co.uk)
面對它吧，這地衣蟹蜘蛛是頗者龜為嚇人外貌的（圖：bnps.co.uk
Since 1890 only 41 one of them have ever been seen in Britain – and it’s not surprising, because they’re only the size of a 20p piece and blend into lichen on tree trunks, hence their name.
自1890年，牠們只有41隻曾在英國看到 - 和並不奇怪，因為牠們只有一塊20便士大小，和融入樹幹上的地衣，由此得到牠們的名字。
Wareham RSPB nature reserve worker Mark Singleton said: ‘This is the first one that has been found in Dorset in 35 years.
韋勒姆皇家鳥類保護協會自然保護區的工人馬克辛格爾頓說：'這是賽特35年來發現的第一隻。
'It is something of a rarity. If this were a bird, the queues would be stretching round the car park. But it's not, it's a spider with a slightly amusing abdomen.
'它是一些罕見的事情，如果這是一隻鳥，人龍會伸展至圍繞停車場。但它不是，它衹是一隻腹部輕微有趣的蜘蛛。
‘We found it in the electricity box a few feet from our work centre and got quite excited when we realised what it was.'
With its scary-looking face the spider – Latin name Philodromus margaritatus - looks like something from a B-movie, but it is in fact harmless to humans.
The spider can move at quite high speeds and uses its running power to chase its main food source - ants.
Needless to say, the little critter has caused a huge stir on the web.
