Found in basement in Iowa anyone have any insight?
In a basement in Iowa……a presidential candidate that got lost on the campaign trail? Greetings from the other “first in the nation state.” My doorbell broke and we never replaced it. This is probably a Bold Jumping Spider, Phidippus audax. The heart-shaped spot changes color with age, I think it is the adults that have a white spot.
That’s a bold jumper. They’re extremely common.
