Thanks!!!
I am happy to finally know what they are. :)

 
Me too!
These were driving me crazy. I was always on the lookout for them while looking for other things. It was staring me in the face all along, it shouldn't have taken me so long to find it.

 
You
did good!
They drove me crazy too.

Moved from Spiders.

Should we gather all these on a NoTaxon page
Maybe we'll come up with something when we see them all together?

What about
Hentziectypus?

Paired white spots
I don't think these match but I thought I'd just throw in an image of another small spider with paired white spots

 
Yeah that one is ...
pretty different looking. The closest I've found so far is Rugathodes but that's not quite right. I maybe should keep looking in Theridion.

Any chance these could be young Wamba
Do they look at all like the adults you found?

 
No
These are totally different. I lost this one. I find a lot of these under my mother's Southern Magnolia leaves. I have found them under others also.
The little Wambas look pretty much like the adults.
I will make sure not to lose the next one. They are so tiny it's hard to find them if they escape.

I couldn't figure ...
mine out, no comments yet.

 
I found
several of these, I think I will keep this one for a while and send a e-mail with the images to Dr. G.B. Edwards and see if I can get a ID, if not with images I will send it to him. Haven't heard from the others yet.
