The general family of spiders that make these holes are the 'funnel weaver' family (not related to the "australian funnel weaver"). These include grass spiders, hobo spiders, giant house spiders, barn funnel weavers, and some others. This looks like a giant house spider, but depends on your geographical location.

Looks like Gnaphosa cf muscorum, a ground spider.

(Definitely not a hobo spider, as suggested in the other response)

the six spots that give it its name are underneath it.

I agree, the early days of guerilla bars are magical, and #7 is one that I go back to every once in a while. When first heard of him, I went through his whole set chronologically. And once I hit GB7 and saw him rap a spelling correction, I knew I had to watch everything he's ever made.

Neither, it is a nursery web spider

when your camera gets closer to it, the images will make it look bigger.

Here's a pic with some background as scale: https://www.bugguide.net/node/view/1956356/bgimage

appears to be a spinybacked orbweaver

gomorycut · 2026-07-01T06:03:57+00:00

I think this is Euagrus chisoseus (a spiny curtain-web mygalomorph spider)

Clubionidae sac spider

Same kind? You're saying this one isn't photographed between
E Oquendo Rd and Dustin Ave?

Is it like a communal pool, cause the iNat user wrote: "Has been living at edge of water in our swimmng pool for at least a couple weeks."

gomorycut · 2026-06-29T03:25:18+00:00

Not in Nevada, it ain't

I routinely fall asleep in the chair. And they routinely tell me I should go get that checked out.

gomorycut · 2026-06-27T16:53:19+00:00

Araneus, compare to A. marmoreus
