Re: Unidentified Spiders seen in France

I think the second spider could very well be an Araneus diadematus. The angular shape of its abdomen points in that direction.
It's a young one, and those are often colored bright orange. The shorter bar of the cross isn't always present, but may appear when the spider matures.
