Tiny Spider

Tiny Spider
Thompson Falls, Sanders County, Montana, USA
March 1, 2007
Size: 1-2 mm
Found on the wall about 1.5 ft up from the floor. Reminds me of a wall spider, but eye arrangement is quite different. That's a dog hair it's sitting on...which wasn't visible before blowing up the picture....to give a sense of how small this one is.
