Spider identificationHi,
I'm a new user from St. Vincent and the Grenadines in the West Indies, Caribbean. I found the following spider having dinner last night and began to wonder which one it is. It's dinner seemed to consist of a beetle and it had weaved a web between a pillar and the roof. Anyone? A larger resolution picture available on request. // Jani [Edit: Did some more research on my own; could it be an Eriophora heroine?]
It definatly looks like an orb weaver but there are hundreds of types of these over the globe, im from australia and this species looks very common to a spider we call garden orb weaver. No doubt after some research that this is of the Eriophora genus but the Eriophora heroine has quite a bristly abdomen compared to this species.
Sorry, but i hope that helps a bit, good luck. A wise man once said to me:
"Build a man a fire, and he'll be warm for a day. Set a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life." Only the fittest chickens cross the road.
