What type of spider am I? – SOLVED – False Widow Spider (Steatoda paykulliana)

[Kiersten]

So this spider must have been hanging out in the watering can I was using. I fear it may have drowned. Anyway I am wondering if anyone knows what type this is? I’m in the Granada Alpjuarras at around 700m.

Cheers
