Found a little guy in my bakery this morning.... though I consider myself a spider fan and someone who loves them in general, I've never seen it before. I don't have a camera here so I am going to take it home. Its got this cool copper looking banding on the legs. I went to look at a list of spiders in BC, and then discovered that there were perhaps thousands of species :eek: which I wasn't quite aware of. Gosh! Theres so much out there and so little time to discover it all....

Heres a couple shots... its quite small so couldn't do more of a closeup than what you see.

Its probably common but again, haven't seen it before and I htought it was cool looking.

Any particular kind? All the wolfs I see here are always pretty uniformly brown... or dark brown.

I've only been in the hobby for a few years. I'm still a newbie when it comes to specie names

Your wolf looks like a badly rubbed adult male Pardosa to me. How big was it?

What does 'specie' mean? I notice that word being used in other posts, too.
I know what species is; species or sp. = singular, species or spp. = plural.
