Summary

[edit]



Description

I have a lot of these cellar spiders (family Pholcidae) in my storage room. This one was huge. Don't worry, she didn't kill anyone I know, so I didn't kill her in return.

Does anyone know what genus or species would likely be found in central North Dakota that looks like this? It's hard to tell if the abdomen is supposed to look like that, or if she's bloated from a large meal. If my memory is correct though, they usually do look like this around here. There are many more species and genera in the family than just Pholcus phalangioides.
