before she realized it was in the stall with her. The photo was taken in an outdoor shower on the Outer Banks in North Carolina, USA. I took another photo with a coin for scale and determined the body is about 3cm in length. I'm reasonably certain I saw a similar lone spider a couple of years ago, near where I live in Pennsylvania. I recall it had a spun a web and I enjoyed watching it for an entire summer. However, I never saw another after the winter. What is it? Native or import?
