Hi Gardeners,

I need help with spider identification. I photographed a spider which looked like a redback, but didn't have the characteristic stripe.

It was shiny black with a dimple in its abdomen. It was about 15mm in length. We found it inside a cinder block in my western sydney backyard.
Could anyone help in identifying this spider?
