Black-Striped Orchard Spider

Leucauge celebesiana

Description:

Last 2 photos were shot 6 days later. Thanks to its selection of web location and its diet, one can make out, how fast it has grown.

Habitat:

Bush

Notes:

Like many of its congeners, this is a colorful and distinctive spider. It has a body length (excluding legs) of 13 mm. The abdomen is white with yellow-green sides with black stripes separating the white from the colored flanks. Another black stripe runs right down the middle. This species constructs a web inclined at 45° and several individuals often build these webs close together.
