I’m totally not sure if this is Pisaurina mira or P. undulata. Definitely family Pisauridae. I’ll label the photo to the family taxon, for now. https://bugguide.net/node/view/2918/bgimage It’s in a defensive posture that I haven’t seen Nursery Web Spiders do. It has its abdomen raised toward you to look bigger and possibly to look like a predator’s head, like a snake.
Thank you for submitting the photo, I learned something. 🙂
