We don’t have any submitted photos that have been identified as this species before. The link I added is to a different ID site that has more info than we do. I found the tentative ID by searching the sightings of Araneus genus spiders in Oklahoma.
I’ll leave the identification open for comments. 🙂
You got the genus correct, I’m just too uncertain for species.
