## Summary

Textrix denticulata, the toothed weaver, is a funnel web spider of the family Agelenidae found in much of Europe.  It was described by the French entomologist Guillaume-Antoine Olivier in 1789. An older name coined by Martini & Goeze in 1778, Aranea cruciger, has been declared a nomen oblitum, allowing Olivier's later name to stand.
