Loxosceles reclusa - Madison, Jefferson County, Indiana, USA October 24, 2012
This female came from an infestation in an old building in a rural area of southern Indiana. The spiders have been there for over 30yrs at least. I assume they are surely reclusa as opposed to rufescens, but I opted to play it safe and post it in Loxosceles until someone else chimes in. Despite the 100s of spiders roaming this public building, no one has ever been bitten.
