Argiope bruennichi is a huge spider that looks like a wasp

The wasp spider (Argiope bruennichi) is a species of orb-web spider distributed throughout central Europe, northern Europe, north Africa, parts of Asia and in the Azores archipelago. Like many other members of the genus Argiope, it shows striking yellow and black markings on its abdomen.The spider builds a spiral orb web at dawn or dusk, commonly in long grass a little above ground level, taking it approximately an hour. The prominent zigzag shape called the stabilimentum, or web decoration, featured at the centre of the orb is of uncertain function, though it may be to attract insects.When a prey item is first caught in the web, Argiope bruennichi will quickly immobilise its prey by wrapping it in silk. The prey is then bitten and then injected with a paralysing venom and a protein dissolving enzyme.The male of the species is much smaller than the female. It can often be seen in or near a female's web waiting for her to complete her final moult, at which time she reaches sexual maturity. At this time her chelicerae (jaws) will be soft for a short time and the male may mate with the female without the danger of being eaten.During Summer 2006, research was carried out in the UK to find that there has been an influx of these spiders to the UK (source Wikipedia).This Spider is becoming quite common in the Netherlands. It came for the last Decades to the North of Europe through warming up the Climate.

This macro photograph showcases a striking wasp spider (Argiope bruennichi) resting in the center of its intricate orb web. The spider’s distinctive yellow and black striped abdomen and long, banded legs are clearly visible, positioned symmetrically within the web. The background features a lush green meadow blurred with natural bokeh, creating a beautiful contrast with the sharp details of the spider and its silken trap. The image also highlights the stabilimentum—a zigzag silk pattern commonly seen in Argiope webs. This nature-focused close-up is perfect for themes related to entomology, biodiversity, predator behavior, and the beauty of natural ecosystems.
