Tiny Mygalomorphae (USA Natives)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The recent post on the Microhexura montivaga (Spruce-fir moss spider) ( http://www.arachnobo...ad.php?t=117703 ) has gotten me thinking about tiny mygs again.
I was wondering what the smallest mygs in the USA were?
I think maybe Hexurella might be small? obviously Microhexura is pretty tiny.
What are the other small ones out there? (bonus points for being in southern california)

Hexurella rupicola makes lenticular egg cases that are 1.5-2mm across and contain 4-7 eggs!
i think this might be one of the smallest mygs in the united states :D
adult female total bodylenth, including chelicerae is 4.5mm!!!!!!
this spider probably has a DLS of under 1cm!!!!
Megahexura fulva total bodylength of mature female (including chelicerae) is 18mm. carapace is 5.6mm long and 4.7mm wide
(in Claremont, Glendora, Los Angeles, Murietta, Idylwild, and many many more places! :D )
both of these species can be found in Murietta, CA! anyone up for a trip?!
