Help With ID

[JoeyP]

Hi all,

Can anyone help with an ID on the spider in the attached photo? I found her crawling about at night in Dallas, TX. She’s about the size of a quarter re: DLS, and I haven’t seen one like her before. Seems to be terrestrial - she buried herself almost immediately when I set her up in an enclosure. Thanks!

looks like a male trapdoor or folding door spider. I'm not familiar with the species in Texas but that should give you a start.
