After a career of fifteen years in the retail jewellery industry, Tylan has taken a break to focus on a lifelong passion of discovering and identifying British spiders and spends much time volunteering with local conservation groups to help widen the profile of the UK spider fauna. He has recently completed a degree in environmental resource management and currently works for Natural England in the Cornwall and Devon area team. He is the County Recorder and Spider Recording Scheme Area Organiser for Cornwall, and can most often be found looking for spiders on rather beautiful, but precarious, sea cliffs.
His mugshot shows the face of a man who has just found a third British site for Gnaphosa occidentalis.
