Definitely a jumping spider. I'm just not sure which. There are a few that look a bit like that with those jacked front legs. I was wondering about Ocrisiona, but not sure

So update, could be some sort of jumping spider?
Definitely. I’d say it’s Ocrisiona sp. or Holoplatys sp. or a relation, something in that clade
Definitely one of the two, I’d lean more towards Ocrisiona sp. but it’s very difficult to tell the two apart.
And as you say that, the comments are now evenly split between Ocrisiona and Holoplatys. I think I am going to remain on the fence here for this one
Think you’re right on the Holoplatys, what a funky little guy
