Spider - Oxyopes tridens
Copyright © 2011 Lon Brehmer and Enriqueta Flores-Guevara

Spider - Oxyopes tridens
San Manuel, Pinal County, Arizona, USA
August 10, 2011
Size: approx 15 mm
This looks similar to a Stealthy Ground Spider (Cesonia), but head does not narrow at front; Sonoran Desert area, elev 3400 feet; would the white bag in the background be the egg sac?

Moved
Moved from Oxyopes. Must be related to tridens, but Oxyopes is such a mess down there. We'll move it to tridens and when that Arizona complex is better understood,these can be revisited. Nice find!
