Spider ID Please...

Post by MSD »

Daughter caught this lady on our screen, and I'm not sure what kind it is. Something new, or at least a little different, than the grass and wolf spiders we typically see walking or screens.

Any help is appreciated...

Nevermind. Got home to see it in person, and a quick search through some arachnid sites and we discovered we have a Harvestman.

Nothing to see here, folks. Move along...

Asking out of ignorance:
Could this be a Lampshade Weaver Spider?
