Sphodros_rufines.jpg Photograph by Patrick Edwin Moran. This is an endangered species. The subject was photographed and returned to the wild in North Carolina, USA (Winston-Salem area) Name should be Sphodros rufipes.

This North Carolina male (note the very large pedipalps) Sphodros rufipes specimen is making a threat display. (The chelicerae and fangs are very large also, the better to bite through silken tubes.) When approached with a Q-tip this individual exhibited a preference for biting first and then running.
