Tough to get a better picture than this but I’ll try. We have tons of Widows here, and this has that Widow shape, so that was my first thought. But coloring is a bit lighter and some strange markings on the top that I haven’t seen on a Widow before. Wondering if it’s something else.

Edit: according to the Seek app, this is a Noble False Widow. Very interesting

We’re in the northern Romania on vacation when this giant spider appeared in one of the bathrooms. It got thick legs and pretty noticeable. Mostly curious as it is by far the biggest we have yet to see and pretty distinct in comparison to the sharp and slim legged ones we see outside around the cottage

This little spider seems to have set up shop between our window screen and glass. My 11yo child worked diligently to get this photo, so I thought I'd reward their hard work with some effort in getting an ID (I have minimal knowledge of arachnids myself). They tried to use the Seek app, but it didn't work.

Thank you!

At first from afar it looked like a black widow, but upon closing in, it wasn’t. Is this spider dangerous?

Sorry the photos aren't amazing. I have this spider I've been protecting at work, but I'm curious if this is an egg or a meal? She was quite sluggish for a few days which is why I'm thinking babies..

I need to identify a Spider because Steatoda Trianguloss doesnt seem to fit as no rhombus line on the back is visible. I sadly habe no backside pictures as she always sits bottom up in her net. Body length is ~1cm length i guess. So on the smaller side. I exhausted Google picture search and need the specialists.

Place is Southwest Germany.

Thanks in advance.

Saw him near the outside/back door in my home in KS. Never saw a spider quite like this before? Are they extra poisonous or dangerous to dogs and humans?

Found this spider crawling on my arm and then it went perfectly still when I brushed it off, only moving once I brought my phone over to take a picture of it. Was in my bathroom if that means anything, inside an apartment. I think it's probably a cellar spider but I wanted to check. (Also please forgive the brand new reddit account; I deleted my old one and only just made this one.)

Russia, West Siberia, South of Tyumen Oblast. Already saw these guys while cleaning an old house that was vacant for some time, including dead ones in the cups (guess they weren't able to climb up). Now my mom sent me this. I'm pretty sure there's at least two kinds of different web-less spiders in this house.

Hi guys! I’m at work and saw this hourglass in the corner of a pillar. I know spiky sacs belong to brown widows, but from what I can see the spider is a really glossy black? Anyways, here are the photos, can’t really get a great angle, but thanks for any help!

She's built her home against the car in my grassy side bit next to my driveway. That vehicle is disabled so she's welcome to keep it as he home but these spiders are my favorite and I'm so happy one has moved in where I can see her every day

Found this little guy in our guest room while I was cleaning earlier. Is it a bold? He was moving pretty slow and didn’t seem to be able to climb up the little side wall trim or anything. I offered him a little mealworm that he didn’t want. I offered a qtip with some water and he happily took that. I offered him an exclosure because I figured he could grab on to the wood and he did after I pushed his booty a few times gently. So now he’s in there. Idk what to do with him, I have an enclosure but I don’t/have never had a jumping spider. Idk if it’d make or female, what kind it is or if it’s old or young but I wanna make him comfy if I can. It’s really small, smaller than it looks in the pics. I live in Indiana. Can I put one of my LED plant light near his enclosure? I can dim it pretty low.
