Nephila clavipes
The legs are relatively long and so is the abdomen which is orange, longish and has white spots. The head has a de3sign that can look like a skull. These spiders are considered poisonous but not strong enough for humans.
These can be found in the warmer regions of the world.
Spotted at Elinor Phipps-Klapp Park in Tallahassee, FL. The orb weaver is also known as a banana spider.
