Female Garden spider (Eriophora transmarinas formerly Araneus transmarinas) Australia, on her web.


Female Garden spider (Eriophora transmarinas formerly Araneus transmarinas) photographed in New South Wales, Australia, on her web. They have two humps at the outer margins of the abdomen. They can change colour to suit their surroundings, as this one living under the eve of a cream-coloured house has done. Female Garden spiders weave wheel-webs at night, then dismantle them in the morning.
