Anyone know what kind
Hi, I don’t know from her underside, we mostly go by the markings and the shape of the dorsal surface (the spider’s back). She’s definitely an orbweaver kind of spider. They make strong round webs for catching flying insects.
Hi, this is likely a Cross Orb-weaver, Araneus diadematus.
