So I have been searching the net and can't find much. Anyone from Delaware know if there are trapdoor or purse web spiders here if so anyone have any?

Wow no one on here is from Delaware. I'm kind of feeling a bit lonely on this forum.

I couldn't find anything indicating that Delaware contains mygalomorphs of any kind, but I could be mistaken.

Nope. That would be a wolf spider likely in the genus Tigrosa. http://bugguide.net/node/view/747000 Maybe Tigrosa helluo

I have not heard of Delaware having any Mygalomorphae, could be wrong but I don't see any listed for any localities. Sorry mate.

From what I have read, trapdoor spiders do not live up there. However, I wouldn't be surprised if they did have a greater range than previously aware. Google Ummidia - that's what you're lookin for. I have been searching around Richmond VA here and there with no luck - I know they are around though... when I get a clue on habitat firsthand, I'll let you know what helped me find them
