bug loveWhat kind of spider is this?
This spider has made a web outside the bedroom window. I was unable to identify it online. We live in N. Central FL. Thanks!
We are shocked and dismayed that you emailed us from our website and you didn’t notice the prominently posted photo of a gorgeous Nephila clavipes, the Golden Silk Spider, also known as the Banana Spider, on our homepage. We also have upward of thirty images of this very distinctive species in our spider archives. In our most recent posting, we discussed the marked sexual dimorphism as the female is about 100 the body mass of her diminutive mate. You photo is of a pair.
