Female of a Golden silk orb-weaver, Nephila clavata on its net
Nephila clavata, also known as the Jorō Spider (ジョロウグモ(女郎蜘蛛、上臈蜘蛛) Jorō-gumo?), is a member of the golden orb-web spider group. The spider can be found throughout Japan except Hokkaidō, in Korea, Taiwan and China. Due to the large size as well as the bright, unique colors of the species of the female Nephila, the spider is well-favored in Japan. Source: Wikipedia
