Drassodes is a genus of ground spiders that was first described by Niklas Westring in 1851.[5] They are brown, gray, and red spiders that live under rocks or bark in mostly dry habitats, and are generally 3.8 to 11.6 millimetres (0.15 to 0.46 in) long,[6] but can reach up to 20 millimetres (0.79 in) in length.
