Humped trashline orbweaver (Cyclosa)

Fletcher Wildlife Garden

This very small spider with the very long name is an interesting looking creature. You can see a closer view in the insert. It is called 'humped' because of its obvious hump, and 'trashline' because it creates a long, linear line of 'trash' in its web; the detritus of its prey.
