I found this boy crossing the road near my house. I know nothing about identification, so I would like help with this one.

I live in Utah, and not very many people ever see them here. I have found little info. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

As far as I know, the only species of tarantula found in Utah is Aphonopelma iodius, and this does look like a male of that species.

Looks like A. iodius to me. Saw a male of the same species in Las Vegas this weekend.
