Noting also that it can move quite fast, I'm thinking one of the wolf spiders, as it was found in Texas.

I can tell you it’s a Salticid and not a Lycosid, but other than that I’m not familiar with the species.

@Sarkhan42 That would seem to make alot of sense given the movement I obseved- I was thinking Lycosid due to the markings. Noting that the Red in the abdomen wasn't apparent until after I'd taken the photo and adjusted the exposure.

@Sarkhan42 After doing some research maybe Trite Auricoma?

@atraxrobustus I believe it to be Maevia inclemens.

@Sarkhan42 I agree- it certainly seems like a female of that species
