Phrurotimpus -- P. certus and P. borealis - Phrurotimpus -

Sheridan Lake Marina, Pennington County, South Dakota, USA
June 27, 2009

Two specimens together, for the sake of comparison. The first is approx. 2.5 mm long, the second roughly 3.5; both mature females, taken on same day from same site.

I believe that the first is P. certus and the second P. borealis.
