The spinybacked orbweaver is a small spider with six spiky projections on its rounded abdomen, which look a little like a crab's shell. It lives across North, Central and South America and the Caribbean, and has been introduced to Hawaii. It is a member of the orb-weaver family, which builds round webs.1

Xibaar

1

Members of the genus Gasteracantha have an unusual 19-hour circadian rhythm, so their wake-sleep cycle is neither nocturnal nor diurnal.1

2

Males die six days after they have transferred sperm to the female.1

3

The spiders often live on the edges of large colonies of Metepeira incrassata, which can contain from a few hundred to a few thousand spiders.1
