Family Araneidae
A beautifully camouflaged Orb weaver spider. Orb-weaver spiders or araneids are members of the spider family Araneidae. They are the most common group of builders of spiral wheel-shaped webs often found in gardens, fields and forests. "Orb" was previously used in English to mean "circular", hence the English name of the group.
Seen at an evergreen forest situated near a river.
