two images, two completely different spiders? Top one is as indicated though bottom one is either genus Nyssus or Supunna?

You are correct. Sorry mistake on my behalf. Disregard the second image.

I've identified this as Badumna insignis based on body and leg shape, as well as the stance. Perhaps the most definitive feature though is the web. There is a chance it may be the very similar species Badumna longinqua, but the black body colour speaks against that.

I've edited out the second image which was not a black house spider, to save confusion.

I think this is a Lampona as Michael suggested. The colour, shiny surface and lack of banding of the front 2 pairs of legs is like Lampona and unlike Badumna. The abdomen does not have the grey markings of Badumna, and the sheet-like web is also not typical of that genus.
