Cyrtophora cicatrosa, commonly known as the garden tent-web spider or dome spider, is a common species of orb-weavers found in many parts of Asia. It is common in gardens and has a very dense, thick, three dimensional and strong tent-like web.
Description
It is a small spider, which has long legs and a green colour with yellowish markings. It can turn black with white and green markings when flushed. It is often seen upside down.[1] Its web is very strong but lacks sticky fibers. It is built in a three-dimensional and complex dome commonly found between branches of thorny plants,[1] but can be seen basically anywhere. Hence, they do not move very much from the centre of the dome in which they hang upside-down.[1] The dome is connected by many lines to a support, and forms a mountain shape in the middle.[1] A chain of green bean-like egg sacs is also a common sight in these webs.
