Moved
Moved from Clubiona obesa. We'll move it to Clubionidae unless you want us to move it to Elaver.

Sounds good
Clubionidae is totally fine. No big deal. It wouldn't hurt to have someone confirm what I think I'm seeing before anything gets moved to genus/species. I am definitely not an expert.

Clubionidae
Clubiona obesa. I'm fairly certain.

Hi, Tom- What characterist
Hi, Tom-

What characteristics suggest C. obesa?

Thanks in advance,

Kevin

Hmm
I wish Tom would've answered you back, because I am curious about that too. I would have said this was an Elaver species because of the presence of abdomen patterning and also the two distal prolateral spines that I think I can see on femurs I.
