osture and behavior seemed like a Sac Spider, Spines on the legs look like a long leg wolf spider or a Tuft-legged Orbweaver (Mangora placida) , body build seems like a wolf spider any ideas?
Body ~8mm, leg span ~14mm. Found on bathroom sink

I think it’s a Sac Spider too. Probably male, from the swollen palps. Mangora placida has a different posture. The black notched feet separate it from Wolf Spiders. Pretty sure it’s family Anyphaenidae, genus Anyphaena. There are about 20 species in the genus in North America. The very short pair III legs might be a clue. Yet, it has eyeshine like Zoropsis spinimana. So, I’m not sure. Anyone else?…….
