I think it’s Xysticus Funestus. Funnily enough, their common name is Deadly Ground Crab Spider, but despite the foreboding name, they’re completely harmless to people. I’ve handled them plenty and they’re pretty docile, too.

That’s a great common name for something so NOT dangerous! I can’t confirm it right now, I’m using my phone’s little screen because my iPad is ‘playing dead’. It might be really dead, It needs to be seen by a device doctor. If I have to I’ll use the desktop computer, it’s not a crisis.
