large black spider with a light blue sac - Kukulcania hibernalis
I have found a similar looking spider while cleaning out my storage room on the island of Bermuda. The one I found is very similar to the one above, for the exception of a light blue/grey color backside sac. Can someone let me know if this is poisonous and or dangerous ? Will post my picture soon....

Crevice weaver.
Nice images of a crevice weaver, family Filistatidae. Moving to guide page because I cannot spell the genus name:-)
