I was snooping around the back of my house today and came upon this spider on my shed. Anyone have a clue as to what it is? First time I seen anything like it around here. I managed to grab some pictures before running away like something that can only be described by viewing this picture, [img]http://picture-book.com/files/userimages/830u/hall700.jpg[/img] Anywho, here are the pictures. Be warned, this thing is scary as hell!

"Fucking freaky as shit-sipierd"
Yah, don't go near it.
I love those spiders, but i just can't remember their name.
It has bright colors on it's back that means it could probobly kill you.
I'd go with Silver Argiope
And if it helps any, this is in Pennsylvania

I suspect it has Horned somewhere in its name.

[QUOTE=Retyuoligkl;16614061]It has bright colors on it's back that means it could probobly kill you.[/QUOTE] I don't think it's a real threat. I've seen more dangerous fuckers outside my very window that are 2 inches Bodylength and are CONFIRMED to being venomous.
Can you give a size? inches?
[QUOTE=Meader;16614360]Can you give a size? inches?[/QUOTE] Around an inch and a quarter.
Never saw one get that big. [editline]09:50PM[/editline] I've only seen like, 1 CM.
[QUOTE=Brodi;16614367]Around an inch and a quarter.[/QUOTE] What you have there Brodi my boy is a Spiny Spider. They are common in Pennsylvania, and "Commonly seen in the forest or in your backyard, the Spiny Spider is not toxic but has a sharp bite. Its web is usually not far from the ground, often being attached to shrubs or fences so it is an easy spider to find."

FP helps once again :) Thread can be closed or whatnot now!
I felt so creepy looking at all these spiders. They might cum and get me! I is scared. protect me!
That would be the rare and elusive ass-rape spider, usually found in mens washrooms.
are you guys that retarded? They're all over the florida keys, they're harmless
Whoops, guess I'm late. By a lot.
I know that spider! Her name is Jessica!
Spiny Spider. Read the thread. [editline]11:16PM[/editline] Both of you. This is resolved.

That thing looks badass.

I posted what it was called, where it was found, if it was deadly and a small bio. If you want to know more than that, look it up. All you need is the name, which I gave. Have a nice day, and a box.
