The wasp (Cryptocheilus bicolor) has apparently killed/paralysed the spider. I saw it drag the spider (Isopedella flavida) for around 30m including across a road and up a concrete kerb. It was traveling in a straight line despite walking backwards. It went into a neighbour's garden so I don't know its destination or how much further it went.
