Hello John,

such a dirty fly. We could be surprised to find it is annosa or something else. I've learned to be more cautious these days. I have no problem with Helina cf evecta. My initial thoughts were evecta based solely upon the wings, hairy eyes and abdomen.
no problem.
H. evecta is an abundant fly here. There's no need to base a record on such an individual.
Also: i often view the spider forum to see what people are finding. I noticed your post. The Theridiidae spider is not Sardinidion blackwalli.
Yes. I hoped to get some new opinions, what it could be, before I changed the subject line, but there are none yet.
I can post a photo of Sardinidion blackwalli if you want to see it along with pedipalp.
Always nice to see an interesting spider. :)
Anyway, i agree with Theridion as a possibility.
Thanks. There's often
Theridion cf. melanurum here at the house, but mostly I only find females.
