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. :) It has some photos that there are no in the net. ;)
