Uh, no. Nothing in the Loxosceles genus lives in Florida. Which makes the many reports of "brown recluse bites" from that state (and from other states where the genus does not exist) a serious and widespread problem of medical mismanagement that has been addressed by the AMA, among other bodies.

"This website presents evidence for the lack of brown recluse spiders as part of the Californian spider fauna. Unfortunately, this contradicts what most Californians believe; beliefs that are born out of media-driven hyperbole and erroneous, anxiety-filled public hearsay which is further compounded by medical misdiagnoses."
