Field Notes
Description:
Domestic house spiders possess elongated bodies with a somewhat flattened cephalothorax and straight abdomen. Their body/legs ratio is typically 50—60%, which accounts for a body size of 7.5–11.5 mm (.3–.45 in) in females and 6–9 mm (.24–.35 in) in males.
Habitat:
Domestic house spiders range worldwide from as north as Sweden to as south as Greece in Europe and from as north as Maritime Canada to as south as Louisiana in North America. Some also inhabit parts of Western Asia.
Notes:
I found this spider in my cellar and thought it would be a perfect model for Project Noah!
