Spiders and Bugs

The invertebrates are gradually appearing in the garden with the Spring sunshine. I was surprised by the presence of a False Widow Spider - on the NBN Atlas it is not recorded in our area though there are scattered records around Cambridge area. Lots of Nursery Web spiders and small green bugs. Not sure what is going on in the last image - an adult Dicyphus epilobii appears to be grooming/attacking a nymphal stage bug (?same species). I will post on a bug site and see what ideas come up
