A very small crab spider found on a gardening glove after use. Note the stitch length relative to the size of the spider.

I agree; I think it's most likely T. decorata (just looking off Whyte & Anderson's guide), but there's quite a lack of distinctive markings so it's probably best to keep it under genus. There's no category for Tharpyna sp (genus) yet though so it'll need to be added after admin is back up again
