From Rod Crawford:
338784 confirms that this is a Cybaeus. It shows the patellar
apophysis on the palps, which Callobius don't have. Also the
coloration is really wrong for Callobius, plus the carapace shape,
etc. If the other 2 photos were just a little higher resolution on the
palps I might even be able to guess which Cybaeus.

Good question
I'll have to get back to you on this. I'd like to get Rod Crawford's opinion.

Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of the palps on mine. I see these about twice a week so I'll try for a palp pic later. This one from the guide looks similar, especially the banding on the legs: Callobius pictus
