In case it's of interest
I photographed this spider on my rental car in the parking lot in front of Baptist Hospital.

Misumessus
This is new species of Misumessus, about to be described. First photo I have seen of it alive.

Hello.
Any update on this?

I'm not familiar ...
enough with these to confidently separate them just by looking at them. I finally got around to adding ranges for the new species on the info. page and was trying to decide if I should move any of these back to genus or tentatively place some of them. Color and location suggests this is M. tamiami.

We would say to go with your thoughts on these
Everything is editable, so if a few errors occur, they can always be adjusted later if necessary. We are eager to see how you would sort these out. Thanks

This particular image ...
is actually mentioned as a reference in "Edwards, 2017" as a presumed female M. tamiami.

Very cool.
Will answer your email too. I would love to know when the species is described and named. Thanks.
