Hi there I was biten on the breast earlier this year by a female redback! I found it a very slow and painful vemonating process, my symptoms gradually worsened and approx 9 hrs after the encounter I was administered 2 viles of the antivenom, my symptoms included nusea, malaise, Brachycardia sweating and not just at the localized area but all over! How ever I am all recovered and just a little more wary now! I was wondering if somebody can help me identify this spider, similar body structure of a redback but a peculiar lime green colour with a white stripe on the abdomon. First thoughts were a juvenile of some sort? please see attachment Thanks :)
