Moved to Geolycosa
Moved from Spiders.

GB Edwards says he's not sure (he'd need a side view) but he'd guess it's a species of Geolycosa. Mandy also suggested it looks like a male Geolycosa. This is our best guess for now.

Wolf Spider
It might be a wolf spider. Can you crop this image to just the spider? Also do you have a closer view of the eyes or a shot of the spider from the front showing the eyes? I'm used to the wolf spiders eyes being a little farther apart than this one.
