Title: Pardosa? => Alopecosa pulverulenta
Post by: Svein Almedal on May 16, 2020, 02:38:33 PM

Finner ikke ut av denne ulveedderkoppen målt til 7,8mm. Klarer ikke finne treff i litteraturen og lurer på om epigynet er uferdig. Forresten usikker på om jeg har snudd det opp-ned også.. Hadde vært fint med litt hjelp.

Alopecosa from the pulverulenta group with broken off receptacula

Thank you.
Found another piece but difficult material to get good photos from. Does this make it possible to ID species?

The second one is undoubtedly Alopecosa pulverulenta, but I am not sure about the first one (septum seems narrow, even if habitus fits)

It is from the same animal, just different parts, it got seperated when i was cutting out the epigyne.  So then it must be A. pulverulenta. Thanks.

I think I understand what has happened - it must have been a subadult specimen close to its last moult and the first photos show the preepigyne while the additional one shows the almost fully developed epigyne underneath (still translucent and not fully sclerotised yet)
