Cross orb weaver
6521. Hello, this spider was on the front door ( I didn’t let him in!) Wondering what kind of spider? Found in end of July in the Vancouver area. Thank you! Vancouver, Bc. Canada
Number 6521. This is a cross orb weaver, Araneus diadematus, a very common and widespread species (in Europe, it is known as the European garden spider). It is harmless to humans.
