Hi,
Any thoughts on what this spider might be? We came across hundreds in our recent travels to southern China, mostly right at head height in the trees!
Cheers

Hi Michael,
We believe this is a female Nephila clavata, the Golden Orb Web Spider, which we have identified in Korea and also ranges in China. It is possible it might be another species in the genus Nephila.
