Mystery spider with bulbous abdomen - Kukulcania

Mystery spider with bulbous abdomen - Kukulcania
Anza-Borrego Desert State Park, San Diego County, California, USA
March 15, 2007
Size: BL about 17.5 mm
We found this spider under a rock creekside in Borrego Palm Canyon. Next to it were three web-wrapped False Bombedier Beetles. We could not photograph the eyes. I hope someone will recognize this somewhat different spider from body shape. Any help will be much appreciated.
