Can anyone identify this spider? Found on the sidewalk at my home in Texas (DFW). I've checked multiple online databases for Texas and surrounding stated and turned up nothing. Thanks in advance.
OP here...forgot to add it is about 3/4" long including legs.
whats the matter with that dog

check
Castianeira amoena
the pattern seems fairly variable, maybe check other Castianeira
>>2127965
the legs seem a bit too hairy on the amoena tho

that's fine, if you find a better match feel free to share it, just trying to help

I'm looking, too.
I was looking into Metaltella simoni, but I'm also exceptionally retarded.

OP here. Thanks for your help. I've never seen these before and I have lived here 9 years. I did consider this in my search, but did not think they got this big. Looks like that's it though. Sucker is fast and this pic was tough to get. Apparently that is one of their talents.

No worries- It's cool whatever it is. I love trying to ID things. As a kid I would read plant and animal field guides (I wasn't very popular.) I'm just happy to see a good ID and it's fun looking at all the plants and animals in the process. :)
Cool looking spider whatever it is.
