Almost a death's head - Castianeira longipalpa
Nashville/Brentwood, Davidson County, Tennessee, USA
May 26, 2007
Size: 10mm
I'll leave you guys alone for a while after this one, but the markings intrigue me. The spider was not in the mood to have its photo taken and as I looked at this shot, he disappeared. No amount of patience would find it again so I have this one lousy shot -- no face-on shots,. There is just a hint of green up there. Thanks in advance.

Looks
like Castianeira longipalpa.
Keep the spider images coming!
It's always nice to see high quality images.

Thanks
Jeff, the speed at which you reply is amazing. When I get a nice image I'll continue to send them, but I know zip about spiders, but then again, you and this site is giving me a quick education - Lyssomanes viridis fairly flows off the tip of my tongue. I'll pop in a nice shot of a conenosed assassin here. If I wade through the listings I know I can find it, but here it comes anyway.
