Fossil Spider

Fossil Spider (Araneidae fam.) preserved in the Upper Eocene Florissant Formation about 34 million years ago. It's not possible to identify the genus or species but from the size of the palps you tell this specimen is a male. Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument. Teller Co., Colo.
