Could it be a brown widow? Check this page:

http://www.spiderzrule.com/commonspidersusa.htm

About 3/4 of the way down, there's a picture of a spider that looks like the one you describe, including the red mark on its abdomen.

If so, its toxin is only about 1/10 as strong as the black widow. It's an introduced species common in the tropical US states, according to the Web page, and I'd say that San Diego qualifies...

If you're not an arachnophobe, check out the rest of that Web site. It's pretty cool...

First of all, it's not a spider. Spiders have 8 legs. Try a pesticide or grab a broom and whack that puppy!

that is a black widow. There are several thousand different black widow markings so this is not uncommon. The give away is the red mark. Dispite rumors black widows are not that dangerous. Bees kill more people yearly then black widows. Just catch him with a paper and cup and put him outside.

Maybe it's a brown recluse? I dont know how to spell that. If so you better be careful. You should look it up on Yahoo pics. They show the spider, and what happens if you get bit too. YUCK!

That sounds consistent with a black widow, particularly a young one

Hopefully you have sprayed for this spider - you don't want it showing up in your bed. It is most likely a recluse - we have many of them in Ohio

it could be a brown recluse, and if it is, it is deadly, if you get bitten, the poison eats you from the inside out, fun time, huh?
