Holoplatys jumping spider

Spiders within genus Holoplatys have a long, flat, oval cephalothorax and abdomen.

There are 36 species known to science within this genus - flat jumping spiders present identification challenges in the field. Location is unreliable as many specimens only have records from cities, suggesting human-aided dispersal. (Robert Whyte & Greg Anderson, Field Guide to Spiders of Australia 2018).
