Arctosa maybe - Arctosa emertoni - female
Copyright © 2014 Steve McKechnie

Arctosa maybe - Arctosa emertoni - Female
White Fox, Torch River, Saskatchewan, Canada
July 12, 2014
Size: 8 to 9 mm
Noticed two spiders I had accidentally dug up and dumped into a wheel barrow.
Let the female T. terricola walk, put second spider into a container with a bit of soil.
Placed her here because of this Light Brown Wolf - SK - Arctosa likeness, right down to dark dash marginal band at each leg base.
