Herpyllus ecclesiasticus Hentz, 1832 Discussion

This spider was biting my wife for a few days and she finally found it in the bathtub.  She has about half a dozen welts up her leg.

I had researched all spiders capable of biting humans living in Ohio and the OSU database came up with seven species, so I could readily identify the parsons spider by its markings, although this particular picture is not very clear.

I believe this is a female because the pedipalps are relatively small.
