A Garden Wolf Spider I believe this may be Tasmanicosa godeffroyi - a garden wolf spider. The Garden Wolf Spider is large and strongly patterned in grey, brown and white with a black underside. They have large eyes with which they locate their prey. Their characteristic eye formation is four large eyes arranged in a square on top of the head with four smaller eyes in a row at the front.
