Moved from ID Request. Selenops looks right to me too.

Inadvertent duplication.

Thought this would be Heteropoda venatoria - Huntsman Spider
but we couldn't find a match in the guide. They would normally be much larger spiders so maybe this is what an immature looks like?? We're having trouble figuring out where all the eyes are which doesn't help our confusion. Let's see what others think.

Something in/near Selenops, maybe?

Excellent, Ken!
Much better. Sometimes you get stuck in an ID rut and can't move out of it. Thanks for the correct ID.
