Had to work today in C. Florida and that kinda sucked, but had a little time after for a walk. And found a bucket list lad! I've seen female Sphodros abboti (mygalomorph purseweb) and they're stunning; now I've seen a male for the first time! Quite a bit smaller than his counterpart, and BLUE 💙💙

I've named him Hamster <3
Hi from state of São Paulo, Brazil!
Today I found this little fella walking around. Is this a wolf spider? Did I identify it correctly?
It's definitely not a wolf - wolf spider eyes are super distinct and easy to see. This lil fella looks like a mygalomorph, which includes tarantulas, folding door spiders, trapdoor spiders, etc. Yours looks like maybe an open-holed trapdoor spider, but I'm not super familiar with your species down there, so take that with a grain of salt.
#3063 - Kwonkan wonganensis - Wongan Wishbone Spider
Not the spider itself, obviously, since she is staying deep underground away from the heat and daylight, but the very distinctive entrance to her burrow, disguised with fine laterite gravel and surrounded by carefully selected larger pieces. At night, she'll listen for the sound of anybody walking past, and lunge out to seize them.
Kwonkan wonganensis is a Anamid that lives in y-shaped burrows in open woodland in what is now the Avon Wheatbelt, so it's only found in the surviving reserves. It was described in 1977 by Australian arachnologist Barbara York Main.
There were a LOT of these burrows either side of the track in Rogers Reserve.

A beautiful and slightly alarming Wishbone Spider, Aname sp. The mites on its mouthparts are Laelapidae, and apparently are not parasitising it; rather, they probably live in the spider's burrow and hunt microinvertebrates or eat some of the spider's food.
The first big Mygalomorph I've seen in the wild, which was very exciting.

Halo is so pretty
Harmonicon oiapoqueae (unsexed spiderling, .5″)
See more photos of this species here!
May not look like much, but this guy was one of my most wanted spiders for years, Liphistius cf. ornatus. Finally got the chance to own one of these rare spiders. They really are ancient looking, almost looks like they have 10 legs with those pedipalps, not to mention they have FREAKING ARMOUR PLATING ON THEIR ABDOMENS. One hell of a primitive mygalomorph.
