User's notes
It's a dead jumping spider. Probably a Servaea sp. I never got a top photo because the wind blew it away. It has a strange shiny thing on the underside of the abdomen.

The "strange shiny thing" on the ventral side is a parasite, something like a fly or wasp larvae, feeding on the spider
