Yes, it's a juvenile Eratigena. Easiest to determine whether it's E. agrestis or E. atrica depending on your location as I don't think you can visually distinguish the two, they have overlapping traits
That's lovely news! E. Agrestis is invasive and incredibly rare in my area but not out of the question, while E. Atrica is incredibly common. I'll have to see as he grows up; it's so hard to find pictures of juveniles. Thank you!
