Hello,

We found this spider in our backyard. We are in Salt Lake County, Utah. Looks similar to a pic I found online of a Hogna Antelucana. Is this the correct ID? I did my best with taking pictures of it. It's about 1/4 inch currently. Thanks in advance. 20240508_102606.jpg 20240507_141251~2.jpg 961edd48-1180-4f15-bce9-a85ed888bf68.jpeg

i think you're right. those large, perpendicular spines on the two back legs are generally a giveaway for Pardosa sp.
Thank you both for ID'ing for me. I always learn so much from all of you on this platform. So cool!
