The following spider pictures need to be identified.

Of course any information we do show is optional.Picture submitted by Joost van Ulden from Kauai, Hawaii.
This spider was seen on the east coast of Kauai in Hawaii. It was in its web about 8 feet above a walking trail. While the picture is not the highest quality, it is obviously a type of orb weaver. Possibly an argiope? Let us know if you have any specific ideas.

This spider was found in a home in Whittier, California. Notice the number of legs and body segments, the front two legs are definitely legs and not antennae, so there is no confusion whether it is in an insect or spider.

This is probably a huntsman spider from Florida. Looking for more specific identification if possible.

Probable Identification: Thomas Walton of Decatur, Georgia has provided a detailed identification description of this garden orb-weaver (Eriophora transmarina). This picture is awaiting proper archival once the orb-weavers identification guide is completed.

Obviously an orb weaver, but can anyone provide more details on this spider? Marbled, furrow, barn, or some other kind?
