is it a black widow?
Can anyone identify the type of spider?
Not too sure as the photo is a bit unclear and it could be from one of several families. It is not a Black Widow, though. The legs are too thick and the proportions of the abdomen and cephalithorax (the head end) are wrong for that family, the Cob Web Weavers (Theridiidae).
