Araneus diadematus (Cross Orb-weaver)
Neat! Thanks! 🙂
Do you know if this might be a cross Weber spider?
The description seems very close to the few pictures I’ve looked at. Do you know if this spider is dangerous or poisonous?
It shouldn’t be. I just held one today. Very passive, and good pest control too if it is like other orbweavers 🙂
Itsy Bitsy can you ID some of my spiders, please?
You can check your images page, I filed the ones I recognized.
Just saw one of these guys in my school in Ohio today! It was definitely the largest spider I’ve ever handled. Very calm too.
