Anyone know what kind of spider this is, has black hourglass on it’s belly?
Did you get a photo of the top of the spider (dorsal)? That is where the most useful identifying features are. Also, thank you for your service!
No I actually didn’t, I couldn’t get around the very sticky web it had spun.
Was just wondering if the hour Glass would unmask it.
That’s okay, it sounds like genus Neoscona. The most common Neoscona sp. in your state is Neoscona crucifera, a Hentz Orbweaver. https://spiderid.com/picture/42406/ Hopefully this link will look like it to you.
