Unknown spider piedmont NC - Female
Salisbury (Piedmont), Rowan County, North Carolina, USA
September 22, 2009
Size: 7mm
I need some help on this one. It is 7mm body length, likes to frequent the eves of our nature center buildings. The web is a bit unorganized with several egg sacs. Her color is a gray/green depending on the light. Comments will be appreciated. Thanks, Dave

Yea, looks good. Would be nice to see another image or two -- a dorsal view and a closer ventral view of epigyne (dark fleck in the middle of underside).

cobweb spider
I'm not sure which genus. When you have more than one shot of the same specimen you can link them together. I've done it for you this time. You can browse through the cobweb spiders here.
