#3541 - Eilica sp.
Unremarkable ground spiders, first described by Baltic-German arachnologist Eugen von Keyserling in 1891. Keyserling was the author of Die Spinnen Amerikas, and completed Die Arachniden Australiens for German arachnologist Ludwig Carl Christian Koch after he went blind.
As of last year, there's 28 species in the genus, mostly found on southern continents. Barring Antarctica, of course - there's no way these things could take down a penguin.
