Sphodros - S. rufipes? - Sphodros Martin County, Indiana, USA July 8, 2019
Found tube web extending several inches up side of building from ground, pulled ~6” of web out of the ground and found spider within. Based on elongate endites and fused labium/sternum, determined spider to be Atypidae. Based on range and morphology, believe spider is Sphodros rufipes, but would like verification.
