Greenhouse spider - Tigrosa helluo

Greenhouse spider - Tigrosa helluo
Corbyville, Hastings, Ontario, Canada
October 11, 2010
Found this dead spider at the entrance of our greenhouse. We think one of our cats killed it? It's not familiar to us; this is the first specimen we have found like it. I have lightened the photo slightly for definition - it is really quite black. What is it?
