Arbanitis sp. Orange butt.

Collected this absolutely gorgeous specimen of a arbinitis away from my local area. The shot, through plastic, does not do her justice.
@RezonantVoid, I don't think she's rapax, just that she was in an area where you can find rapax. Rapax, although, not particularly patterned can have some beautiful golden hairs.
 
Your girl looks similar but the breeding pair i gave to my buddy we found is def A. Rapax looks alittle different to urs
 
I've been able to have a closer look at her. The spinnerets (they look Idiopidae flat in this picture) and the eye pattern suggest that she is a Nemesiidae and at a full length of 6cm, a pretty big one.
 
@Dave1969 a hefty size nonetheless, at the larger end of the Arbanitis growth scale. She's definitely in good hands now though, can't wait to see some dorsal photos
 
She is a great spider either way that is for sure & i am gald i wlake dup rock on a broken ankle or may habe not see her burrow
