Leucauge venusta
A small, black spider with lots of white color-stripes on its body, as well as a small amount of yellow and red highlights.
A lush yard near Lake Killarney in central Florida. The trees are tall, bushes thick and plants well-watered. It's a very friendly place for flora and fauna. This spider was in a far corner of the yard, atop some bushes in the shade of a tree.

Welcome :)
Good to know there are spider enthusiasts waiting to pounce on unidentified arachnids. Thanks for the help.
