That’s a great photo of Steatoda grossa on inaturalist! Unfortunately lateral views of spiders are difficult, we mostly memorize and photograph the dorsal views. This one is probably Steatoda triangulosa. It has a diamonds pattern down the back and triangles on the sides that form a zipper pattern with the diamonds. I’ll look for a good photo to attach.

The @TangledWeb method sends me an email titled, “You have been mentioned in a conversation.” A regular reply comes to email as, “a new comment on SpiderID..” Honestly I ignore the latter emails and just check the messages by tapping the red bell symbol on this site itself. I do read the former emails. I’ll be a real moderator when the site is rebuilt and I’ll let everyone know if that comes with a new way to get my attention. 🙂

Thanks a lot for the hint. Seems like it’s from the genus Steatoda, but unfortunately can’t find which one exactly
Grossa?

It indeed seems like Steatoda triangulosa, thanks a lot for your help!
Good to know about right photo angle, thank you. Gonna keep that in mind.
