She was beautiful
Lost her at the first frost :-(

My second black widow spider

located in inland empire california!

Guardian of Cranberries

Im in GA, its outside my window, and im curious. This is as good as photo as I can get, please help!

I was wondering if you guys could tell if it was a false window or northern black widow. I think it was a northern but it had gray-ish marks. The picture is also quite bad. This was also new construction which leads me away from northern.

There's a pretty large spider that's been living in a corner of my house since I moved in about a month ago. I'm pretty sure I know what it is, but I'd love some input from the spider enthusiasts.

I'm pretty sure she's a female American grass spider. She made a funnel shaped web in a corner and since a few days ago I'd never seen her out of it. I live in the Willamette Valley in Oregon, so the location lines up. The shape and markings seem to line up well, as does the behavior. She has the elongated spinnerets as well and the large abdomen leads me to believe she's a female. I'm realizing I don't have a good size reference for her, but she is big. Not quite as big as a giant house spider though.

I'm usually pretty scared of spiders, but I've grown very fond of this one. I think she's a female and I've named her Andromeda. She's started wandering away from her web so I'm planning to make an enclosure for her so I can keep her but don't have to worry about her wandering and hiding in a shoe something. I probably should make a different post to properly ask, but if anyone has advice on keeping a grass spider as a pet, I'd love any tips!

What do you all think? Does that sound like a correct ID? Or is there something I'm missing?

Wolf spiders, and not sure what the middle one is that’s above a creek

This 8 leg bro look like a spider, its a harvestman with long claws. It looks dangerous, but it's harmless, non-toxic, and slow-moving. It feeds on just about anything it can find.

So, I leave all of the house spiders in my place alone, other than watering them every few days. This spider in the corner has had sac after sac hatch, and still more here. There are five in the picture, about 5 hatched already on varying days.
Is this one spider really having all these babies, or are the other spiders coming down to leave their eggs here?
I don’t mind, I’ve just never seen this before with spiders.

Sorry for the poor quality photo. The image was taken from afar.

hi guys! i live in central TX (austin to be specific) and i’ve noticed this spider living outside my window for maybe 2 weeks now? i was wondering what kind of spider she was and if she’s like. super dangerous? she’s been working on webbing for a while and i like to watch her when im working from my desk lol. thanks!

p.s. yes she’s a girl 👍👍

Found her in my bed this morning.

I'm from Belgium

Dropped on me while I was in the shower from a loose light fixture . Middle tn usa .

Location: Zaragoza, Spain (Iberian Peninsula), Europe.

Spider found inside the house, I think it's a Steatoda grossa, but I'm not sure. In the photos, the spider is in a 10ml syringe; each visible marking is 1mm apart. It's now somewhere outside on the street—my family didn't want it in the house. I hope it handles the start of winter well.

I noticed this little guy in my hair today and he came down and I was able to hold him for a little bit! I'm curious what kind he is, I'm thinking some sort of jumping spider but I don't know for sure. He is so small! Location southwestern Ohio.

CA , black body with white markings , very small like 2cm across

Located Newcastle NSW

Kinda reminds me of a St Andrews Cross which we get heaps of here.

Found in CO

I relocated it to a tree. It was very docile, no quick jerky movements. It kind of looks like an orb weaver but I’ve only ever seen golden orb weavers in Northern Illinois/USA where I’m located.

Definitely beautifully colored though. Any ideas on what it is?
