What kind of spider is black and has a white dot on the back?

Answer 1

According to a website that i just visited (the bug man??) this spider could be what is called a false black widow. I too had a question about this specific description of spider- as I recently found FOUR of them within three days in the same area in my house. According to the bug man, this spider actually eats black widows and something else called a sow bug. Hope this is helpful

Answer 2

There are many Spiders that fit this description....so specifics would be helpful. If I were to guessed based on what is most common, I would say either a Bold or Daring Jumping spider, a Parson Spider, or a spider that falls under the Genus Steatoda

Answer 3

Hmm, the description on the question is quite vague but here is something i found that resembles the description: Daring (aka Bold) Jumping spider. It has the white dot in the lower part of its body.
