I don't know what the name is but we call them "Garden Spider". They sure decorate themselves around homes. Beautiful macro shot. Aloha

I just got the word from the bug guy, it's an: Adult female black and yellow argiope spider, "Argiope aurantia". Note the white zig-zags of webbing in her web. These structures are called stabilimenta, but their function is not entirely understood.

Beautiful, if creepy, shot! The spider looks similar to the mainland's golden garden spider.

I had one of these in my yard last year, commonly known as Banana Spiders...that's exactly where his web was, between two Banana plants.

Great shot. We have them here and they are commonly called 'garden spider' and they eat aphids in the garden.
