Identification please!

[MigueDude]

Hello everyone! My son actually was the one to find this spider and I caught it. Have tried looking for a way to identify it but have had no luck. Not sure if it's a ground spider species but I'm inclined to think that it is. Any help would be great because the colors are just too nice to ignore! We call it here the Halloween spider because of the colors but also the tiger spider because of the pattern

I believe that is a castianeira amoena. They are gorgeous and feed on small insects like ants

Thank you! Yeah I've tried different insects and actually saw it feeding on a gnat or fruit fly type insect I caught outside for it. Very vivid coloration indeed.
