Small, round, reddish spider -- Steatoda borealis? - Steatoda borealis - Female
Cincinnati, Hamilton County, Ohio, USA
November 11, 2016
Size: <1cm
Dorsal view.

Small, glossy, reddish-brown spider found in bottom of cardboard fruit box that had held nursery plants on an outdoor deck. It held still for some photos, but when I jostled the box, it flipped onto its back and curled up.

Is this a Steatoda borealis female?

Thanks for any info!
