Grass Spider - Agelenopsis - Male
Wildwood Park; Radford, Virginia, USA
July 15, 2012
Is this a wolf spider? If so, what kind, please? If not, what is it?
Its web was tunnel-shaped and was in front of a hole where a split-rail fit into a fence post hole.

Moved to funnel Weavers
Moved from ID Request. I usually like to see the spinnerets before guessing genus.

Sorry,
Lynette, I couldn't get the critter to roll over! I did well to coax it out of hiding.
However, I did get one more view and will post it.

the view of the palps might be useful

Lynette, it's linked with all the others
I don't know spider anatomy, and I also don't know how to put the image here. However, I'm sure you will find it:)

Male funnel weaver
Something in Agelenidae... someone else may be able to narrow it down more.
