Nephila pilipes annulipes
This is a Golden Orb-Web Spider that i found in my backyard. This spider is probably a female of Nephila pilipes annulipes (juvenile). This spider has long abdomen, with black and yellow stripes. The size of this spider is about 10 mm in length (excluding its legs).
- Spotted in my backyard. Usually, it can be found around the garden and bushes.
- This spider is from the Nephilidae family. Thanks to Bayucca for the ID.
I was first very sceptic about Nephila pilipes. But with these 2 links I am a little bit less confused...
