Mediterranean recluse spider
Loxosceles rufescens, the Mediterranean recluse spider, originated in the Mediterranean region as its name implies, but has been introduced to Arkansas, Hawaii,[1] and the gulf states of the United States. Although uncommon, there are more confirmed reports of Loxosceles rufescens than the brown recluse in Ohio.[citation needed] It, too, is a human-associated species with similar habits and probably similar venom risks.[citation needed]
