Maevia inclemens
Small spider that hung around my walls and ceiling for days.
This looks a lot like a male Dimorphic Jumper - Maevia inclemens. The males have two different forms. One of them is a dark, black body with pale yellowish legs:http://bugguide.net/node/view/270078http://bugguide.net/node/view/532059/bgi...Info page for this species:http://bugguide.net/node/view/2030For comparison some images of Brown Recluse (note different color and body shape):http://bugguide.net/node/view/564563/bgi...http://bugguide.net/node/view/577139/bgi...
The violin shaped body maybe suggests a brown Recluse??
