The New Guy


This rather beefy black spider had been hanging around in the bathroom lately; last night he was in this empty flowerpot there (its diameter is about .5 inches / 1.27 cm). I just went to measure the hole in the pot and found the spider now dead.

It's most like a trapdoor spider, Ummidia sp., (looking in my Texas Spiders book), but that's an uncertain identification.
