Is this spider harmful to human? edit
does it have a painful bite ...?
Well, that explains why so many spider monsters in anime and tokusatsu are so colorful with yellow and red. Neat!
Image:Nephila-clavata-female-sevenlegs-Enoshima.jpg edit
Hi, I don't know anything about spiders---in fact I'm petrified of them, but I think the one in the latest image is a different variety than the one profiled on this page. Isn't this one considered a "banana spider"? Those are pretty common around here in South Korea. The photo I uploaded a few days ago was notable, for me, in that it didn't look anything like a banana spider, so that's why I noticed the differences between this and that. Just raising the issue, that's all SolitaryThrush 06:48, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
- "Banana spider" refers to ALL golden orb-weavers, which would include this species, but other species as well (such as Nephila clavipes or Nephila inaurata). NoriMori (talk) 20:45, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
Spider size edit
It says here that the female's body size is 17 - 25 mm, but that's only 1.7 - 2.5 cm, and the spiders in these images look much bigger than that... So I'm wondering — do these measurements include the legs, or are they ONLY referring to the body? (i.e. abdomen, thorax, head.) Also, is it referring to body LENGTH or body WIDTH? Does anyone have an image showing a size comparison with, say, a hand? NoriMori (talk) 20:45, 20 August 2009 (UTC)
Well ... ? edit

US native spiders *do* eat stink bugs edit
" They have been observed catching the brown marmorated stink bug (Halymorpha halys), another invasive species that native spiders have not been known to eat..."
This statement is incorrect. In the northeastern US, at least, common cellar spiders (Pholcus phalangioides?) aggressively hunt and eat brown marmorated shield bugs. Some people encourage the harmless spiders to move upstairs to help control the offensive stink bugs. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cteno (talk • contribs) 18:41, 11 March 2022 (UTC)
Need Wikidata admin help for interwiki link edit
Looks like ja:ジョロウグモ still points to en:Nephila clavata. As a result, Trichonephila clavata doesn't point to a bunch of languages in the interwiki section. According to Wikidata resources, someone with admin priviledges needs to do a merge so these languages can be linked with each pother. --Nidaana (talk) 12:34, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Nidaana: the Wikidata items should not be merged, because there is always one for each scientific name, regardless of whether these are synonyms. All you can do is to move all the Wikidata language links to the same Wikidata item, even if this is not the name used by that language wiki.
