I don’t know anything. She builds a net. She is mostly still during day. She has this form, her two front legs always in the front like covering her head and her head I saw once was red!

I think it is a feather legged orb weaver…it may be this one Uloborus plumipes

They are really interesting little spiders. They don’t have any venom glands unlike most other spiders

I agree, I should know this spider. I’ve heard the name stinger tail orb weaver, but they don’t sting or produce venom.
