There are two species in the US:
Trichonephila clavipes
and Trichonephila clavata, which is only documented in Georgia.
And while similar, they shouldn't look "exactly" the same. The picture OP posted is definitly a species that does not occure in the US.
If you had some pictures that would be great.
Yea I have some from last summer, can let me figure out how to upload them to here.
Ideally post them to [email protected] with as close as a location you're comfortable with.
