Found hiding under a brick behind the classroom. With legs close to the body 1cm long and with legs extended about 2cm. Black all over but the abdomen is reddish brownish. Tiny hollow bumps all over his abdomen and one pebble like bump which looks orange but might just be the soil. Making web around the stones we put in with him. We think he might be a False Katipo.
