Total length of females, 9-18 mm; carapace mm long, mm wide. Total length of males, mm; Carapace mm long, mm wide. There is considerable variation in color and pattern. One female from Texas had black bands on its legs. The abdomen has a black folium in many females collected in Alberta, Montana, Wyoming, Europe, and isolated other places (Figs. 101, 102); in females from other areas the folium en- closes symmetrical light patches (Fig. 100), or sometimes it has a reticulated pattern. The shape of the terminal apophysis and the length of the subtcrminal apophysis vary from specimen to specimen (Figs. 103, 104). Although the median apophysis of A. marmoreus is just as variable as that of other Araneus species (Grasshoff, 1968,.
