Moved to family for review
Moved from Strotarchus.

The appearance and coloration of this spider makes me think Cheiracanthium more than Strotarchus.

Moved to Strotarchus piscatorius
Moved from Leafcurling Sac Spiders.

Good call Mandy! With those large AMEs and the extra long legs (esp for a female) that certainly makes more sense.

Strotarchus piscatorius?
Do the anterior median eyes seem kind of large for Clubiona? I think I read that large AME sometimes means Strotarchus?

 
Strotarchus?
Now that we've been studying the clypeus on these... do we need to reconsider the ID on this one?

Hi Mandy,

Strotarchus is a genus that I am not so familiar with, so entirely possible. I'm still on vacation this week, which means that I don't have an Internet connection that is fast enough for viewing and comparing images.

Maybe
Clubiona ??

 
I agree
Clubiona seems likely.
