Found this buddy in child room. It's just enormous monster for me. Although I understand that this is nothing in comparison to Australian spiders, I've never seen something with this size before in the wild.

Can you tell me what species is it?

It looks like a "vagrant spider" - I found something similar in size and shape and Te Papa's spider expert kindly gave an ID for me via twitter. Was the biggest spider I've seen.

Fast moving nocturnal hunter - common around Wellington. They end up indoors sometimes in autumn.
