Male and female spiders found under flower - Zygiella atrica - Male Female
Puyallup, Pierce County, Washington, USA
September 21, 2008
Found these living a couple inches apart under the same flower. I'm assuming they're the same species.

And now it looks like I assumed wrong. The male is x-notata and the female is prob. atrica (awaiting confirmation).
