Loxosceles reclusa
Brown recluse spider with a green abdomen
I found it in a barn under some cardboard boxes.
I think the green color is from a caterpillar that it had fed on earlier. It must have been toxic to the spider because it died later that night (I kept it in a ventilated plastic container).

A family member just posted on Facebook a picture of a brown recluse with a green abdomen . It was found in an outbuilding in Pocahontas, AR.
