Loxosceles sabina(?) - Loxosceles - Male
Tucson, Saguaro National Park, Rincon Mountain District, Pima County, Arizona, USA
June 26, 2015
Size: 10-15mm leg span
From the range maps I am fairly sure this is L. sabina. Could anyone provide information on where the range of L. apachea ends and if the two species overlap in Eastern Tucson?

The distribution maps ...
in Gertsch and Ennik, 1983(1) show the area overlapping with L. arizonica and L. deserta ... also shows L. apachea nearby and one point of L. reclusa in the area. You still may be right but I don't think I can make the page for it without it being examined up close.
