Cyrtophora cicatrosa, commonly known as the garden tent-web spider or dome spider, is a species of orb-weaver found in many parts of Asia. It is a small spider with long legs and a green body with yellowish markings. Its web is very strong but lacks sticky fibers. The web is built in a three-dimensional and complex dome, commonly found between branches of thorny plants but can be seen almost anywhere. It is often found in gardens and has a very dense, thick, three-dimensional, and strong tent-like web. The dome is supported by many lines and forms a mountain shape in the middle. A chain of green bean-like egg sacs is also a common sight in these webs. This photo was taken in Tehatta, West Bengal, India, on May 24, 2024.

Argiope aetherea is a large orb-web spider (family Araneidae). Like other species of Argiope, it is commonly known as the St Andrew's Cross spider, due to the characteristic cross-shaped web decorations female spiders often include in their webs. Like most orb-web spiders, this spider shows considerable sexual size dimorphism, with females being many times larger than males. Like almost all other spiders, Argiope are harmless to humans. As is the case with most garden spiders, they eat insects, and they are capable of consuming prey up to twice their size. An Argiope aetherea spider sits in webs waiting to catch prey in a forest at Tehatta, West Bengal, India on 15/11/2023.
