Could this be L. marmoratus? The only one with a dorsal pattern similar to mine. However the legs are not all yellow as in some shown here. Thanks for any help here.

in TX...
the only somewhat similar-looking thing would be L. mexicanus. Lacon marmoratus has a sharply-delineated groove on the hypomeron for reception of the front tarsus; mexicanus lacks such a groove.
