Thank you, maria dB. I was not sure what category to select.
I also changed the category from other (which is for slugs, mollusks) to arthropods for you.
Welcome to Project Noah! Nice first spotting, too. If you submit this photo to BugGuide on Facebook or the Internet, one of their members may be able to help you narrow down which wolf spider it is. It is also helpful if you can state in the habitat section where you saw an animal. We look forward to seeing your future spottings!
