Attus fasciger Simon, 1880

Remarks.

This species, introduced to North America apparently in the middle of the 20th century ( Cutler 1990), is typically found on buildings. The large male palp and spaghetti-like copulatory ducts distinguish it from other species in North America except the differently-coloured A. finschi .
