Interesting, the posterior lateral eyes don't look far
enough back. We were expecting you to suggest Dolomedes??

You know, that's another genus I often overlook -- I've no direct experience with them. But glad you caught this -- the position of the white stripes (not to mention the eyes) did cause a moment of concern. I should be more cautious about my off the cuff judgements -- esp. just before bed.
