Rabidosa rabida
(Rabid Wolf Spider)

Comments & ID Thoughts

Is this a Cesonia bilineata? Are they dangerous?
Do they live in trees? What is the common name of this spider?

I was moving some dead branches and then suddenly this was on the ground in the path where I was dragging the branches through. So I’m assuming it was living in them, but can’t be sure. It did jump pretty high though.
