#spiders tw
i realise this a long shot but i was wondering if you might be able to ID this little fella? Apologies about the photo quality but they’re so small it was really hard to get decent shots. They’re not in such hot shape due to being terrorised by my cat, they’re about 5-8mm big and was found in Melbourne, Australia. Also, when I first spotted them, the abdomen was a lot darker, like the head.

It looks like a jumping spider (Salticidae) to me based on the eye arrangement, but I’m from North America and not very familiar with spiders from your corner of the world.
Just from some brief googling my best guess would be Hypoblemum griseum/Hypoblemum villosum(this was the picture with the best visual match), but, again, please don’t take that an authoritative ID because this is very far outside my area of familiarity.
Anybody else able to help?

For the record, Virgil was very unhappy about the current situation.
Admittedly, he wasn’t sad to leave the village behind. Patton had been miserable there, and the people there seemed to have a grudge the size of a mountain, despite the fact that he’d been very careful to never do anything worse than scare someone out of his woods.
And they were his woods! He’d cleared out an old cave system, settled into the local ecosystem without overhunting, and fought hard to counter any claims other supernatural denizens wanted to lay. He’d made himself troublesome enough that the prime patch of land remained under his care. He was pretty sure he’d actually prevented some actualmaneater types from settling anywhere near the village, even!
What did he get in return? Hostilities so high that his humans had used them to talk him around to the idea of abandoning his home for the past several years, despite his defining character trait of loathing sudden changes in his life.
Logan’s unrelenting debate points about bounties and Patton’s unbridled enthusiasm about moving may have swayed him to agree, but that didn’t mean he had to like it.

so. they put a lot of pepper into one “Jon” “martin”, huh?
[ID: the image is a digital illustration from MAG 197, it is of Jon, Martin, Basira, and the silhouette of Annabelle Cane. They are standing precariously on a thin web above a purple void. Basira is the furthest to the right, Looking forward and to the left at Annabelle, she is stepping forward cautiously and has a hand outstretched to jon and martin, prepared to steady them. she looks concerned. Jon and Martin are in the center right. They are in mid movement, Jon’s facing martin, arms outstretched mid catch, feet planted on the web. he is looking forward and his mouth is open as if speaking, he looks afraid. Martin suspended just within Jon’s arms, face hidden from view, errant bits of web still connect to him. In the left is a silhouette of what is almost a person, apart from the extra thin appendages and mandibles. the entire thing is lit from below by a vivid purple light. end ID]
