Another Badumna? - Badumna longinqua - Female

Size: ~1/2 in., 13 mm
I tried to get an eye photo. Really I did.

Do the double claws help with ID?

Claws
I wish they helped with an ID. But unfortunately, all the spiders that I would assume this gal could be all have three claws on each tarsi (I think one is hidden behind the rest in these photos). I would agree with you that this is another Badumna longiqua. Adult female.

Claws
A third claw shows on one of her left feet. (I didn't know that any spiders had more than one claw per foot. You learn so much here . . . )
