Some type of Ground spider...? Maybe?

This guy was speedy gonzalez, running away like crazy on my slate walkway. He scurried up a ceramic figurine for a moment before scampering back down, eventually running out into the soil and disappearing into some leaf litter.

About the size of a woman's thumbnail, but more narrow.

Very glossy black, solid black carapace with white horizontal stripes on his abdomen.

Cant find anyone who looks like him online.

Thanks, all!
