76.) ARCTOTHECA to BELLIS

ARCTOTHECA

Laphangium luteoalbum - found along Lakeside Crescent in Southmead / Henbury around ST5804 7770. It’s clearly been there a fair while – it’s in at least ten gardens, mostly in its favoured habitat of block paving, and I only walked along the western side of the road. - R.J. Higgins in 2025. Google Maps Street View shows that it's been present since 2023.

Also found at Weston-in-Gordano in 2017 by C.M. Lovatt.
