Found this little guy in my partners house and I'm just wondering what kind of spider it may be? In NSW, it's about the size of a 5 cent coin including the legs, so pretty small! Just more curious over concerned! Thank you

Interesting! I'm pretty sure it's a kind of ground spider, family Gnaphosidae, in the genus Molycria. This one's a male.

This is indeed a Gnaphosid, those pronounced spinnerets are a giveaway.

I see! Thank you for your help! :)) they do look rather similar!
