#Arachtober 19: for spooky season, here's a couple of ghost spiders (family Anyphaenidae)! The first is an adult, possibly the mother of the tiny one in the second photo. They resemble sac spiders like _Clubiona_ and _Cheiracanthium_ but with distinct patterns of markings, and as you can see they make similar silk hammock retreats, here under the leaves of a _Silphium_ cup plant.
