Could you help identifying the following?

Anne Arundel County Maryland

Expert Response

Hi, 

Thanks for contacting us for help. 

There is probably several dozen moth species in MD that look like that. You can explore iNaturalist or Maryland Biodiversity Project to see if you can narrow it down.

The spiders you are showing here are not medically significant (not widows, not recluses) but 
spider ID isn't very easy without at least a clear view of the eye pattern. Body shape and coloration can vary between juveniles and adults and males and females.
