MP-E65 Comments for improvement welcomed. I think this is a female ghost spider, Hibana incursa or Hibana gracilis.

I was going to suggest Pisaura. A nursery web spider, Pisauridae. Sp.?

I'm not at all familiar with American beasties but I'm pretty sure it's a spider.

Another great find and another great image of it. I really like the color combinations of the shot and I know that it doesn't always work out that way. Highly detailed and spot-on focus on its eyes. Job very well done.

It does look like a ghost spider, as shown here: https://bugguide.net/node/view/1619401
The eye arrangements are strikingly similar to nursery web spiders. I don't know ghost spiders, so that is a new one for me.
Great picture, too! 👍
