Argiope Species "Cross spider" that I can found at the park I usually go for macro shooting. Busy with its prey, it left the web decoration uncompleted. It is actually this guy that make me thought my previous upload is a juvenile of St Andrew Cross Spider cause this guy looks like one and that juvenile are very similar to it for body parts above abdomen and face, though web decorations are different. Perhaps adult and juvenile make different type of decoration patterns? Argiope versicolor,Geotagged,Malaysia,Multi-coloured Saint Andrew's Cross Spider Click/tap to enlarge

    Agreed that this looks like an adult Argiope versicolor. As for juveniles, my understanding is that you can't identify them based on patterns. Posted 2 years ago
