Nephila pilipes
There are two spiders in this...the orangey one is the one that I wanted to catch.Unfortunately my movements shook the leaves and the spider was alerted. The male is the orange one.
Suntaley Khola is a remote hilly and forested area by the River Murty in the Dooars region of West Bengal, India.This species was seen in the garden of the resort.
I got just one shot and that too, not very clear. But can someone help me with the ID. An orange spider I am so intrigued.
Thank you Jonathan Hiew....I saw the Nephilia female but concentrated on the orange one...thanks for telling me it is the male. How totally different they look!
