Welcome to Project Noah.
This spider might be a Stephanopis pustulosa.

Hi Nicole, I see Atul has already welcomed you to Project Noah (and found an ID for you!!) but I also wanted to say welcome, and what an amazing spotting. He would be so easy to miss! Here are a few missions you might like to add it to:
Mimetic Animals of the World: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8015...
International Spider Survey: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/6518...
Wilds of South-East Queensland: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/7967...
Enjoy the community and we'll look forward to seeing more of your spottings!
