Black Widow? - Castianeira descripta

Black Widow? - Castianeira descripta
near Franklin, Wayah Bald County, North Carolina, USA
June 21, 2009
Spotted near noon of the Summer Solstice in a gravel parking area at 5400 ft. Looks more like a Black Widow than anything else I know but the marking is unusual.
