Anyphaena dixiana - dorsal 1 - Anyphaena dixiana - Female
Austin, Travis County, Texas, USA
November 23, 2014
Size: 4.5mm
Det. J.T.Lapp. The epigynum is not an exact match for A. dixiana, but it is much closer to dixiana than to any other Anyphaena in Platnick 1974. The "epigynal midpiece" has a different placement than shown in dorsal figure 23. May just be genetic variation.

Found under a dog bed outside on a patio among leaf litter. A few days later I found this male Anyphaena dixiana in leaf litter on the patio as well, providing further evidence that the present specimen is also A. dixiana:
