Plexippus paykulli
"Spiders in this species are robust, with a high carapace, and are covered with short greyish hairs. They are about ten millimetres long, the female being slightly larger than the male. The sexes are easy to tell apart as the males have a black carapace and abdomen with a broad white central stripe, another broad white stripe on either side and a pair of white spots near the posterior end of the abdomen. The stripe continues between the anterior eyes so that the face appears to have three white stripes on a black background." - wiki
