ghost spider? - Hibana gracilis - Male
Albion, Calhoun County, Michigan, USA
November 26, 2015
We haven't had many visitors since our 10-inch snowfall last Saturday. But it was so balmy tonight that I went out about 6:30 and found quite a few stragglers, including a spider I hadn't seen all summer (though I think I saw it once earlier in the spring). Is this a male Hibana gracilis? It will be the first for Michigan if it is.

That looks right. Species based on range.

Thanks Laura. I'm glad to have seen it. Maybe it is one of those things that only come out at night? Our ground is freezing now and yesterday saw no bugs day or night.

Thanks again,
Martha
