User's notes

The spider was sighted on a handrail in ANBG's Rainforest Gully and was in the order of 4 mm in length. It was very active and small enough that it kept having to jump out of the way of various small ants that were tracking along the handrail. Thanks to Marcus Leach for the initial sighting.
