Picture of unidentified spider

Comments & ID Thoughts

Found this spider. It was sluggish, perhaps unwell. I attempted identification with Google Len’s which returned Scytodes thoracica but the description puts them at 3 -6 mm and this spider is well over an inch in diameter if you include out to the legs.

The size estimate is for the total body length. TBL is measured from the front of the cephalothorax to end of the abdomen. I think the markings rather match with Scytodes atlacoya. Which I believe can be over 10 mm in TBL which makes more sense based off your size estimate given. https://bugguide.net/node/view/1217423/bgimage
