Help identify this spider
Did the computer force you to choose a U.S. state? That happens sometimes. We know Ecuador isn’t in Massachusetts. 🙂
Actually i was using chrome in my android phone, so maybe it’s a platform related issue. Kind of baffling since in the homepage it says the website has “pictures of spiders all over the world”.

Only U.S. and Canada have required drop down boxes for a required more specific location . I’m not sure what is meant by, “United States minor outlying islands.” Aren’t they all in states or territories? Weirder is that we have the “Holy See” as a spider sighting location. That isn’t actually a physical place of its own. It… Read more »
