Grass spider

The grass spiders are members of the genus Agelenopsis. They weave sheet webs that have a funnel shelter on one edge.

Big Grass Spider eating an Unlucky HouseFly

If anyone can identify this spider, that'd be great. I found it in the garage of my sister's new house while painting the walls. Go here: nature.berkeley.edu I narrowed it down to the Grass Spiders and the female "Zoropsis spinimana." Please leave your thoughts in the comment box! Thanks! **NEWS** The spider died on July 19, 2009. Poor thing, it either: suffocated, dehydrated, had food poisoning, or a baby black widow's bite is potent enough to take down this biggie. If you noticed in the video, the baby black widow was crawling on the spider.
