This beautiful velveteen look spider was looking for a spot to hide out on my oak tree. Reminds me of a Castianeira but I'm clueless.

Moved from ID Request. I agree, great find!

Ariadna?
Very, very cool! I think you may have found a tube-web spider here. Ariadna bicolor would be my guess since I think that's the only Segestriid in OK. Let's see what others think.

That sure looks like it!
It was something I've not seen before. Thanks!
