Comments & ID Thoughts
Anyone know what spider this is? I think it bit my wife in the ear and was wondering if it's dangerous. It's small and haven't seen any webs around the apartment

Hi. your little friend is a bark crab spider, Bassaniana genus, thinking Bassaniana versicolor species.
While these can bite, they are not dangerous, not as severe as a bee sting.
I have handled a few,just never bitten, not like they run around biting people.
Welcome to the site.
Thank you very much. Funny I did think it looked like a crab
