It is probable that the two females from Texas are the 
same species as the male, as they have the same scolloped 
edge of the median light stripe, the two pairs of lateral 
spots on the cephalothorax, and the small dark spot at the 
end of the thoracic groove, and the spotted abdomen.

Cephalothorax clear, yellow-brown with a V-shaped light 
mark extending from the posterior lateral eyes to end of

Cephalothorax shorter than femur I. Head very broad.
