I wish i had gotten clearer pictures... He was probably the size of a Dime or a Nickel fully stretched out, wasnt fuzzy at all really... maybe a few hairs here and there, and a little on the abdomen. but he was shiny, and there were no black or orange hourglass marks. I KNEW what a black widow looked like, and unless the males dont have those markings.. i dont think this was one. His body shape reminded me more of a tomato spider or something though.
I actually just googled some images, and i found somone that looks pretty darn close to what this guy is. Maybe the one i found is a Juvi??? but hes certainly got the same leg markings and body shape.... who knows.. Im going to look up the stetoda sp you mentioned John. THANKS!
