If it looked like that, then I'd stay away from it.. Known to be the most deadly spider. I think it's the one that kills you in 15 seconds.
it could be the red back spider but that depends on where you are hope that helps
Does it have a red hour glass on its bottom? If not, nope! Who the hell is going to pick the spider up to see if it has red on its bottom?
you have found aRED BACK SPIDER! watch out. poisonous
An ant, or a spider!
I was bitten today by a small black insect with yellow stripes, I think it was a spider but I am not too sure.
I got bit by a spider fitting this description, and hurt very bad. Very small, black spider with two very small dots on its back(side by side), but I don't know what kind it is..left a pretty good welt, and red dot on my leg.

You can make Halloween spider legs out of black pipe cleaners for small decorations. Halloween costume spider legs can be made of black material or black tights.

The Red-back spider (Latrodectus hasselti) is commonly found in Australia. They are a small black venomous spider with long thin legs, and the females have a red stripe on their globular abdomen.
My guess is that this spider you saw was either a Jumping Spider (quite possibly a Daring Jumping Spider) or a Parson Spider.
