Av, ?, 5.6.I need help to identify this spider. I think it is a Black Widow spider (Latrodectus hesperus or L.mactans or L.curacaviensis), but a few friends are telling me it's not. I took the photo on a rocky road in the north mountains of Nicaragua, department of Madriz, which is located between 13 and 14 degrees of latitude north. These mountains are at an altitude of approximately 1,730 meters, and the climate is subtropical. The size of the abdomen of the spider on this photo is about 1cm (i.e. 3/8 of an inch).Texto en ESPAÑOL: Necesito ayuda para identificar a esta araña.

Esta foto la tomé en un camino pedregoso en las montañas del norte de Nicaragua, departamento de Madriz, ubicado entre los 13 y 14 grados de latitud norte. Estas montañas están aproximadamente a una altitud de 1,730 metros sobre el nivel del mar, y el clima es subtropical. El tamaño del abdomen de la araña en esta foto es como de 1 cm (i.e. 3/8 de pulgada).
