Arrow Shaped Micrathena

Micrathena sagittata

Description:

Larger red female, smaller darker male

Notes:

This is the first time I've seen spiders like these. I believe the larger red one is the female, and that the smaller black one is a male (presumably her mate). His location relative to hers can be seen out-of-focus in the first picture.
