Size
I don't know but it would have been small given that I used my 1-5x 65mm lens. Not including legs, it could not have been over 5mm and I doubt under 3mm.

Shot near previously submitted image here. Same species?

Pardosa sp.
It might be a Pardosa species.

I edited the
previous comment asking if it might be the same species as my previous submission but you responded before I hit the submit button.

Anyway, should I move to genus? Thanks.

There is probably no way to be 100% sure
but based on other species in the area I wouldn't argue with that move.
