Comments & ID Thoughts
I think this is Larinioides sclopetarius. My friend found her on concrete floor as we sheltered from a thunderstorm in the stone entrance to a mausoleum . She's pictured on granite.

Hi TangledWeb, I’ve noticed you posted a few pictures of the Bridge Orb Weaver and the Cross Orb Weaver. I was wondering if you could check out the picture I posted of what I thought was a Cross Orb Weaver and let me know if you think it is a Cross Orb Weaver or a Bridge Orb Weaver. Thanks!
Hi! Here’s a useful link to BugGuide’s Orbweaver ventral images https://bugguide.net/node/view/295445. Dorsal images have more characteristics that can be used for IDs.
