Description This is my pet southern house spider (Kukulcania hibernalis ), the Grey Lady.

It's rare to see her out of her mountain, and even rarer for her to pose long enough for a photo shoot.

Oh she's gorgeous! I'm so sad we don't get Kukulcania here in PA.

Thanks. She is probably my prettiest "Kuk" -- it's too bad I hardly get to see her. (She lives in a modified aquarium that my husband found at a garage sale. I sealed off all of the small holes in the aquarium mountain so that she can only go in the cave area and not inside the actual plastic.)

That's a nice looking spider.  How big?

Thanks. She is about 15 mm in body length (not including the legs or palps).
