Vaska (Kukulcania hibernalis)
She was already mature when she crawled out from behind the washing machine six years ago.
@Ztesch I would estimate that she is about 2" in DLS. These spiders live for ages. They take a few years to mature, and females continue to live and molt for at least 6 years after maturity. With the exception of one bad molt, all of my females that I caught in 2012-2013 as adults are still going strong.
