It appears to be potentially some sort of anamidae or potentially some kind of trapdoor spider or wishbone spider

Hi! Looks like a trapdoor/wishbone spider from the genus Stanwellia (Pycnothelidae), they are quite common across Victoria and are poorly documented, there's probably hundreds of undescribed ones here waiting to be found. Any other pictures of it, preferably ones from directly above?

Also, in case it was a concern, this one is only mildly venomous and doesn't pose any significant risk to people
