Thank you Dan. I assigned Gasteracantha for this species.

I see that on your other spotting, but only a few species from Gasteracantha moved to Macracantha, but I don't think this species did.

Thank you Luis and Dan!
Dan, honestly, I'm a little worried. But it had a suggestion that Gasteracantha transfer to Macracantha at my spotting before.

Cool spider. Are you sure it's not a Gasteracantha species?
