Picture of unidentified spider

Comments & ID Thoughts

Found hanging under stairs in mud floor basement with no natural light a few days before halloween. Warm day. Upon inspection, did not appear to still be alive. Broad Cove, Nova Scotia, Canada. My guess is... big spider in a ghost costume. ?!?

Can’t tell what type of spider but the white is a entomopathogenic fungus that infects the spider eventually killing it. They are commonly referred to as “Zombie Spiders”

Thank you very much for the response and the info. I will definitely research this, based on what you have indicated, so I can have a better understanding of the cause and effect.
