Field Notes

Description:

This is an image that I captured at the Brooklyn cemetery of a spider.

Habitat:

Found the spider crawling around on a sidewalk near the cemetery entryway.

Notes:

This seems like the typical, 8 legged spider. Wasn't anxious about being captured and seemed calm while it was in the jar for the duration of the photo.

Well done Emily. Wolf spider.. family Lycosidae
This beautiful spider looks like a male wolf spider. My best guess at this time is something from genus Hogna. https://bugguide.net/node/view/3381
