Comments & ID Thoughts

I think I narrowed it down to a black house spider or a wolf spider. My son found it behind the Christmas tree on the floor. It was about the size of a silver dollar or larger. It looked almost fuzzy. From the distance it looked solid black but could’ve had some dark grey in it.

Hi, welcome to SpiderID. 🙂 Your visitor is a Wolf Spider (Lycosidae). I could likely be more specific if you have a more detailed image.
