Comments & ID Thoughts
I think it's a common house spider, but I can't quite find any with such pretty white stripes on its thorax or the same leg lengths (though maybe the pics I've seen just aren't great?)
I live in texas and found this little one in the window by my bed. I was just gonna shoo it away from my bed but I wasn't sure what type it was so I caught it in a jar. It doesn't seem aggressive, but I only let spiders stay in my house if I know they're harmless so I'd feel better knowing what species it is before I decide where to release it.
Thank you in advance for any help!

This is a crab spider but can’t tell which kind
Thank you so much for you input! I can’t believe I didn’t even consider crab spiders. I looked into texas crab spiders and now I’m pretty sure he’s a bark crab spider.
