It is a Brown Recluse.
And they're not found in Australia. (Found in southern US states).
This series of pic's has been floating around the internet for a few years.

Re: When you see this spider, DO NOT try and catch it !!!!
I've seen some pictures worse than them of a man that was bitten bitten on the thigh whilst in bed! :scared: ....these brown recluse spiders have venom that actually destroys human flesh! Once bitten, the infected flesh has to be removed as soon as possible to prevent the venom spreading! .....such a horrible little spider! ....so damn glad it's not an Aussie!!!
The worst thing is, it looks like a common UK house spider!!! :scared:
