A
friend of mine who as a Mexican red knee spider and here are a selection of shed
exoskeletons.

Here is a
zoomed out picture of the spider, hope to have more pictures follow.
This
Flower spider (Misumena
Vatia) has a white colour to blend with it's natural habitat of
daisies and other white flowers, this spider can also change colour to yellow to
blend with yellow flowers but this is a slow process. This picture was
sent to me by someone I know and she was alerted to this spider because the
white on red.
Then a closer picture was taken and here it is. A white flower spider on a
red/pink flower.
The
common Garden spider (Araneus Diadematus)
or cross spider due to the white cross on the back, taken in the garden of a
person local to me sitting at the hub. I have more and will be in the big
gallery of spiders
This is a yard/hobo spider
(tegenaria agrestis)
my mum took at Davy Down Essex, she sore the spider and using the bit of leaf
shook the web to tempt the spider out. Here you see the fangs are open and
ready to kill the intruder.
This is the same picture just taken without the zoom.
This is a picture of a Sydney funnel web spider, this and
the next few images where taken by Col Halliday. The next few images are
the spider rearing up to attack and the last image has globules of venom at the
end.
