Probably V.sayi...
And definitely not ornatus... But the coloration is so atypical, wonder if it might be something else.

Please click on "edit"...
...and add the sighting date to the Date field. Also, please fill in more of the location fields if you can. This information is important to have in the database.

Vonones sp, a harvestman...
Related to spiders. They aren't dangerous or anything, and lack any venom glands. Really cool specimen, haven't seen any with this type of patterning.
See the genus page here: http://bugguide.net/node/view/16788

If you come across another like this take more pictures!
This patterning is very odd, so if you come across this again, try to document it if you can. Better images may help shed more light on this find.
