Description

Found at night on a trail across an earthen dam on a suburban lake. Took it home for some studio photos, including body length measurement.
Wolf Spider - Tigrosa species? (female, body ~16 mm)
Location: Durham NC (USA)
Also posted at:
bugguide.net/node/view/2308318
Ventral view looks close to this one, a T. helluo:
https://bugguide.net/node/view/83160
Also, a close match for this T. helluo from Ohio:

Update. Looks to be:
Wetland Giant Wolf Spider - Tigrosa helluo
Rose's detailed description and photos of the female seem to match.

The focus is different between the two pictures. The DOF is very narrow so one focus is on the head the other on the backend. Hopefully this helps in identification.
