Thank you Cael Gallery for identifying this species for us General Species Information: Found on Ellura (in the Murray Mallee, SA) and elsewhere A large male spider, 17mm body length, 55mm leg span. After Cael id'ed our Tiger Wolf Spider (Hoggicosa castanea) we went looking for others we had photographed. We thought this was one, but Cael recognised the difference and said "The big difference here is the median streak on the abdomen and the black on the femur." | |||||
