Walckenaeria subdirecta - Female
Allison Park, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, USA
November 4, 2014
Epigynum matches the diagram in Millidge, 1983 (The Erigonine Spiders of North America Part 6. The Genus Walckenaeria Blackwall) figure 175. The spacing of the striae of the cheliceral file match figure 309 for a female W. subdirecta, seperating it from W. directa.

Thanks Lynette!
Luckily I found the ID while I still had the spider, else I probably wouldn't have taken the time to image the chelicera.
