Hentzia mitrata? - Hentzia chekika - female

Hentzia mitrata? - Hentzia chekika - Female
Sarasota, Sarasota County, Florida, USA
December 22, 2011
Size: 7mm BL
The closest I can find to this one is Hentzia mitrata, but some of the features don't quite match with the images that I see on BugGuide, notably the dorsal abdomen pattern and the banded pattern of the pedipalps. Also, the abdomen seems narrower than the others. Is this a different species or perhaps a subadult?

How about
a female Hentzia chekika? I think the dorsal pattern on the abdomen fits quite nicely.

I agree.
Thanks!
