T. sisyphoides - Cryptachaea blattea - Bowers Park, Santa Clara County, California, USA June 19, 2010 Size: ~ 3 mm
I beat this adult female theridiid from an oak tree near a creek. Keys out to Tidarren and I think this is the only species in my area. No visible colulus, abdomen higher than long and epigynum is raised swelling (see later image). I don't have Levi 1957c unfortunately - doesn't look like it is available?
