Found this hiding in a dark closet nesting with an egg sac under the lip of a bucket. There was no web. just a fuzzy tangle. Felt something funny, the spider was hanging from my hand, shook it off, killed the egg, took a picture with my phone. It got away under a boulder. The body was hard looking, a bit shiny. In spite of the picture, there were NO white markings. The ones showing are actually reflections off the shiny body, The spider was the size of a \"loonie\" with legs fully extended, but appear much smaller when walking on the ground (about the size of a quarter)
