Can you please ID this fella?
Found it in the bathroom. Fast mover/jumper. I think it got brought in on luggage from airplane. Can be from anywhere but likely from the Illinois/Michigan area.

Black Spider in Texas
Really need to see the eye pattern of this specimen; it appears to have been sprayed with something that has obscured any markings it may have had. The leg posture appears consistent with that of a huntsman spider, but I doubt that it actually is one...
From what I can see of the eye pattern, I believe that a huntsman spider is a definite possibility. These spiders are native to Texas, and are not dangerous to humans.
Cool. Thank you sir!
