Description: The Spiny Orb Weaver is one of the most easily recognized spiders in Florida. They are very small, usually 1/8-1/4", are wider than they are tall, and have distinctive red and black marks on a hard, white shell.

Seasonality: Year-round outdoors.

Attractions: Citrus workers frequently encounter this species, and they may be found on trees and shrubs around houses and nurseries.

They're here! For their size, Spiny Orb Weavers spin very large webs. Also unique to this spider, their webs are spun with tufts of silk. It is unknown why they do this but one theory is that it makes the web more visible to birds thus ensuring that the birds don't fly into the web and destroy it.
