That could be the Striped Fishing spider, or it could be another type of fishing spider

It almost looks like a brown huntsman spider…

I will agree with nursery web spider, Pisauridae family.

Hi, best guess at this time is Ctenidae. There are species in Ctenus with the same sort abdominal pattern, similar carapace pattern and legs with the white bands but I haven’t managed to track it down yet so tentative ID only. Awesome spider, hopefully we’ll eventually get a firm ID for it.

I thought all Ctenids were Mygalomorphae, this certainly is not.
Guess I was wrong.

Strong banding of the legs, I found viridasius fasciatus, or something close.
Seems these are endemic to Madagascar.
