Adult Male?
Laura, is this a good example an adult male in this species, because of his palps & his body shape? I'm preparing a submission of some close ups on an adult female that I have tentatively IDed as a light-colored-venter variety, in this species. She looks much like this spider, but with all female qualities. BTW, I'm only a few hundred miles from him! Thanks

I can't say that it is ...
superficially it looks like a good example ... but it hasn't been IDed by the genitalia and I'm not 100% sure the ones with the pale venter are really the same species. So far as we can tell they are the same and there are no other closer options ... but they don't fit the description of the species. The genus needs to be revised. :)
