Yesterday I found these two spiders at Leerdam, Netherlands, in a small piece of wooded area near the river Linge.
I think they are Lycosidae. Is it possible to put a genus or even species name to them?

Thanks in advance!

1. Lycosidae. Pretty hopeless I guess.

2. Pisauridae, Pisaura mirabilis. (closely related to Lycosidae).

Not quite. Almost surely Pardosa amentata (female). The by far most numerous spider here in the moment :-).

You can see the new www.aranhas.info in Portuguese and I'm helping to build it, but it could provide some good hints for species in ESP?CIES section. Smile It has some photos that there are no in the net. Wink
