spiders from project noah that need to be identified

[Wolfspidurguy]

okay so i was looking around on the internet to see what spiders are out here in Tennessee during January and i decided to try project noah because it shows when they were found and where they were found. i then realized most of the spiders were posted with IDs like "jumping spider" or "orb weaver" and some i just dont think are correct so here are some of the more interesting ones

"trap door spider"
http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/794917839

"Brown Recluse/Violin Spider"
http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/25913061

"Jumping spider vs aphid"
http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/1634036007

"Jumping Spider"
http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/327456228

"Unknown spotting"
http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/203226002

"Jumping spider (female)"
http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/30932041

"Ghost Spider"
http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/11857028

"Black wolf spider"
http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/10195574

This jumping spider ("Jumping Spider" http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/327456228) is probably Phidippus otiosus: https://bugguide.net/node/view/27094

The "brown recluse" isn't - not with those macrosetae on his legs

These two jumping spiders (http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/30932041 and http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/1634036007, both labeled as Phidippus aurantius) look like they probably are exactly that, or at least somewhere in the ballpark. https://bugguide.net/node/view/1031635/bgimage

The "black wolf spider" (http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/10195574) is labeled as Allocosa funerea, and that also appears to be correct: https://bugguide.net/node/view/423818

The "ghost spider" (http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/11857028) is labeled as a Hibana sp. and that appears to be correct: https://bugguide.net/node/view/1395355/bgimage

The trapdoor spider (http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/794917839) is labeled as an Ummidia species, and that appears to be correct as well: https://bugguide.net/node/view/417674

any idea why a Trap door would be outside of its burrow in side a house in the middle of winter?

It looks male, so probably looking for a mate. That's usually the reason one sees trapdoor spiders prowling around, away from their burrows. It's also possible that the burrow was flooded, dug up, or otherwise disturbed and the evicted spider was searching for a new place to "hole up."

It's a mature male of one of our local SoCal Aphonopelma species. I was releasing a rescued snake that had been trapped in a discarded beer can (https://imgur.com/gallery/gCI3W) when I discovered the little guy stuck in a tree (https://imgur.com/a/NrEd8) and helped him down.

Wow those pictures are absolutely stunning I might see if anyone has one for sale

Not sure the trapdoor is Ummidia. The ID from bugguide indicates a diagnostic depression on the tibia segment of Leg III which I don't see in the listed example.

I was thinking maybe Eucteniza sp. but I don't think they range into Georgia. Not sure.
