Araneus circulissparsus

Description:

8mm

Habitat:

Rose bush beneath a mulberry tree in a small web. Common garden spider

Formerly labelled as A. psiticinus this has been identified as Araneus circulissparsus by Prof Atkinson. Many thanks for the information! The difference appears to be in the amount of red in the patch on the back
