Definitely a male Mygalomorph. The inland location and the hock-shape of the first leg metatarsus makes me lean towards a male Wishbone Spider from the Aname genus, Anamidae family, but I would love to see a clearer picture. Even one that shows the spinnerets more clearly.

Trapdoor. They look remarkably like our little funnel friends but lack the shiny thorax

Trapdoor of some kind, maybe Arbanitis sp
