Help identify this spider
Hi, welcome to Spider ID. 🙂 This is an Orb-weaver, looks like a Backobourkia sp.. Thinking B. heroine, but B. collina is another similar possibility.

Edit: I’m thinking the banding on the legs might be a little different between the two but I’m not very familiar with them, I’m not sure.
