Is this a brown recluse spider? This came from my daughter at her work lab. Not the greatest picture and sort of looks like a fiddle on its back. Any idea? ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2025/04/full-114237-266225-img_1955.png)

No. The recluse has longer, thinner legs in proportion to it's abdomen. Daughter got bite by one last year - hurt for a couple weeks, fortunately no tissue damage.

I think No. Doesn't have the body and no fiddle back.
