One of the questions people ask me the most & a question I see a lot on FB is what kind of spider is this/is this a Brown Recluse? 95% of the time it is not a Brown Recluse. However this spider pictured is a Brown Recluse. Note the violin shaped dark marking that starts as a round area of coloration around the eyes & head area & draws down to a fine line that continues down the back of the thorax. They also have really long legs, it looks like they have more legs than body. Interesting side note is, it is believed that 80% of reported Brown Recluse bites have been misdiagnosed.
