Comments & ID Thoughts

Caught this little beauty in my hallway on a curtain on the floor this spider is surprisingly still it was very easy to take a picture of it I'm going to set it free tomorrow I think it's some kind of wolf spider specifically a Hogna antelucana spider it's HUGE could easily be about 4in. in length the way it's stretched out right now it is tan and along the back it's blackish with a tan line on the center and has a very small abdomen probably male please correct me if I'm wrong has two huge eyes has smaller sized eyes underneath them sorry for my crappy grammer skills hopefully you guys like the picture I uploaded

Hi, welcome to Spider ID. 🙂 This is a Wolf Spider though it looks closer to Hogna carolinensis (Carolina Wolf Spider). I’m not positive but the proportions do look male.
