I've never seen A.redii with the color pattern of white abdomen and the large black spot on the rear part. Here, I think, we can't talk about age-specific color variation of A.redii, but about genitically determined trait which exists in spider population along with normally colored form. Only what I can tell about the species it belongs to is Araneus marmoreus. At last the observed two color variations are well known for this species and I saw them myself in nature. The only thing confused me in my decision is that two rounded prominences on the front edge of the abdomen. But the body size of the spider can tell the truth: A. marmoreus is much larger than A. redii. Best regards, Sergey |
