You are welcome. I miss living in CA, so love to see your spotting.
Amazing link Gators!! Thanks so much!
Hi Emma;
This is not a brown or desert recluse. Body shape; proportions and color is wrong for Black Widow. Here is a good ID article from UC Davis; http://www.ipm.ucdavis.edu/PMG/PESTNOTES...
Thanks CIndy.
Hi Emma, I can't tell what this is but it's not a Brown Recluse. They're not found in California. There is a Desert Recluse in south east California.
This seems to be a brown recluse?
