Spider Photos - Marbled Orbweavers (1)

Here's some photos of those common Garden spiders from the Orb Weaving family.  I've broken the spider photos page up into sections as it was getting too big. As some are still unidentified, I've grouped them as closely as possible. I don't identify spiders as I am not an expert and I like to leave that job to those who are. If anyone can help with identifying those that people have asked about, please email me so I can pass the info on. My apologies if there are some Araneus on pages where they don't belong but they are very hard to identify, especially from photos. Try this page for a species guide:

Furrow Spiders    

Commonly called the marbled spider, this species belongs to one of several genera of orb or orb weaver spiders that frequently are found as adults on or around houses and other buildings from late summer to fall. Adult female marbled spiders are 9-18mm long; some other orb spiders are smaller and some larger. Most species live one year, but some survive longer. Orb spiders are not aggressive and, like the vast majority of spiders, are not dangerous to people. Bites are rare and usually are no worse than a bee or wasp sting.

I found this guy in his web on the overhang of my garage in Asheville North Carolina on October 17, 2011. He had a large orb web and I watched him wrap up a small moth that flew into the web. Amy, Asheville, NCy

I saw this spider while hiking the Appalachian Trail in the Shenandoah National Park in Virginia a few weeks ago. It was crawling up my leg as I was having lunch, creeped me out. Do you know what it is?

Hi Glen… I’m providing two pics of a Marbled Orb Weaver observed on the eve of my home located in the northwestern mountains of North Carolina. I thought these were good examples of spider with the legs extended and withdrawn. I was unaware of the type until obtaining the identification on the web (pardon the pun). I didn’t know if you would like these for your website or not, but thought I’d submit them. I just found your site tonight and thanks for the detailed information and photographs. Steve, Boone, NC

I am not sure but is this an orb weaver? It was seen in the North Georgia Mountains today Nov 19,2010. It was walking across a driveway in a heavily wooded area. Mostly long needle pines and some oaks and maples and cherries. Thanks.

Here are a few pictures of some spiders that I took. One is a Marbled Orb Weaver Spider that I took on November 11, 2010. She was coming down out of the tree on a single thread blowing in the wind and almost blew into my mom, my sister and her Fiance who was holding their 15 month old daughter, as they were walking by on the sidewalk. My sister came running back in to get me, of course I grabbed my camera. This other spider is unknown to me. I have seen several in the house and would like to know what kind they are. I live in Northern Illinois. Thank You. Amy T.

I found this orange spider in Ancaster Ontario in my back yard bushes. I have never seen in my life a spider so beautiful in colour or to have such pronounced markings and a face clearly visible. Could you please help identify. Thank you

Hi, We just found this guy in our garage and believe him to be some sort of orb weaver? We are from Southeastern Pennsylvania, and have never seen a spider of this color! Any help with further identification would be appreciated! Thanks! Jen

Hi Glen, I very much enjoy your site and it's been very helpful in identifying our local arachnids. We have a marbled orb weaver just outside our porch this fall (north central Maryland). While you have a lot of pictures of them, I know you only have one or two showing the male, so I thought I'd send you this. If you can use it, please feel free to post it. His attempt wasn't successful. It started raining and both spiders parted ways. Hopefully he'll be back to try again! Laura

I live in Pennsylvania and I was wondering if you would identify this spider for me. A friend of mine found it and it's coloring and markings are similar to an orb weaver, but this one is so fuzzy I am not sure it is the same. The images on your page show the same coloration around the head, thorax and legs as her spider, but the fuzz is throwing me off. Thanks so much for your help!

I used your web to identify this spider. Photo taken in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Georgia. Thank-You Dean
