Agelenopsis actuosa

Classification

Order
Araneae

Agelenopsis actuosa (actuosa = "active, agile") is a species of grass spider found in southwest Canada and the northwest United States. The species are rather similar to those of the genus Agelena, instead of Agelenopsis, mainly because of their paler coloring and the meeting of the two lines on the cephalothorax (near the abdomen), which are usually parallel in other species. Females also possess a considerably larger, almost swollen abdomen after their sixth molt.
