Pirata piraticus. Stearns County, Minnesota.
Here is a male wolf spider in the Pardosa lugubris group. That isn't to say that it is a Pardosa lugubris as there are three species which look so similar that it is impossible to tell which is which just based on a photo like this one.
The three species are the common forset wolf spider (Pardoisa lugubris), the meadow wolf spider (P. saltans) and P. alacris (which doesn't have a common English name).
When I see one of these at my mother-in-law's place outside Härnösand, 500 km to the north of us, then it must be P. lugubris based on the distribution, but here in Stockholm, it could be any one of the three.
