I found another spider under a stone at Arcos del sitio, Tepozotlan, Mexico.
This one was a lot larger, its tail had the size of an olive.

Could anyone identify this species?
Thanks a lot in advance!

Another wolf spider; possibly a Hogna sp. - this genus includes some of the largest wolf spiders in North America.
