Red Legged Purseweb Spider

Red legged Purse Web spider in Weston Bend State Park, Weston, Missouri
Hello,
I photographed what I now believe to be, from your website, a red legged Purse Web Spider in Weston Bend State Park in Weston, Missouri. This is approximately 30 Miles North West of Kansas City. All of the notes seemed to show this being sited mainly on the east coast and in the south. I thought I’d submit the photo and the siteing for whatever it
may be worth.

Hi Derrik,
We checked the email several times while on holiday, and were ecstatic to get your image of a male Red Legged Purseweb Spider, supposedly an endangered species. Before we could even unpack after returning, we needed to post your wonderful siting. Thanks for the contribution.
