I am not good at ID ing spiders, Jemma, but I think, from the other spottings of jumping spiders in PN, this could be it.

this could be a jumping spider. Jumping spider s have this kind of arrangement .Look at the eyes in the front.

Thank you Logan, I didn't notice it before you pointed it out. I started observing spiders very recently. But, from the other spottings I have seen in Spider missions, there is a pair of eye on the sides of the head too. That is a very interesting find.

I dont think I have ever seen a spider with eyes on the back of it's head.
