Premolt or death curl?

Don't know what I may have done wrong... she has plenty humidity and it's not cold in my house but everyone is saying premolt but she looks more like a death curl.

Looks like the substrate needs moisture maybe the spider too. Water under the spider as well. If it needs water it can drink from the substrate. If it sticks around while placing the water its likely dehydrated or in premolt. The water won't bother it at all for either or. ;) Just place the water slowly near the spider. I use a turkey baster. Get it good and wet but don't make it puddle. If the spider takes off there's probably nothing to worry about.

And for those of us not in the know (probably just me) what species is that? Anyone can answer.
