I can't seem to nail down the species, but the yellow stripe to the head suggests Tigrosa for me. I can't find any other comparable specimen in photos to this except for the head pattern. Those I've shown this too who know more about spiders suggest it is aberrant, perhaps infested with a fungus making it light coloured. Specimen was too skittish for direct face photo.
