Hi Mac, I’m on the west side of ABQ. I found one of these on my porch today as well. Let me know what you find… I’ve been searching and haven’t found this species come up for me yet.

Hi, this is probably Steatoda grossa, a False Black Widow.

TangledWeb is correct, Steatoda grossa, aka ‘false widow’ or ‘cupboard spider’. I am going to keep it around, as competition for worse arachnids. Cheers
