Leucauge venusta, known as the orchard spider, is a long-jawed orbweaver spider that occurs from southern Canada to Colombia, along the East coast, reaching into the central US. The web is often oriented horizontally, with the spider hanging down in the center. This species is parasitised by a wasp larva which attaches itself externally at the junction of the cephalothorax and abdomen. Order: Araneae, Infraorder: Araneomorphae, Family: Tetragnathidae, Genus: Leucauge, Species: Leucauge venusta (Walckenaer, 1842). |
