Field Notes - This was found on a towell in our downstairs bathroom. Fortunately before it was used. I think it's a trapdoor spider of some sort.

Possibly a ‘Wolf Spider’ according to the ‘SA Field Guide’ app.
Quite large 40-50mm across the legs. It was not aggressive but I would not push my luck.
It was walking around our camp wood pile early in the evening.

Rainforest Wishbone Spiders (Genus Namea)

Description

This large spider had crawled up inside a rolled section of snake wire (6 mm square mesh). I was worried s/he might not be able to get out, so I carefully opened the roll and gently shook it...spider dropped to the ground and waited while I lifted the wire away. S/he was in no hurry to get away so I photographed and left. S/he was gone later, so I guess is safely busy somewhere in our backyard forest. I was a bit concerned it might be a Funnelweb and was very glad to have someone id it as a False Funnelweb, or Wishbone Spider. Apparently those fangs can do some damage, but this spider's venom is not nearly as toxic as Funnelweb's - phew!
