(Roddy, 1966)

Elaver madera is a species of spider in the spider family Clubionidae.[1][2] It was first named Clubionoides madera when circumscribed in 1966.[3] It is closely allied to Elaver texana and its related species, which are mostly found in the American tropics.[3]

It is a relatively large clubionid species, about 1/2 inch (13.90 mm) in length overall.[3] Its carapace and appendages are pale yellowish brown, and its abdomen is gray covered with fine hairs.[3]

The female holotype and paratype were collected at Madera Canyon, Arizona in June, 1952.[3]
