[edit] Type of spider?

this spider has built itself a huge web in my backyard (im in Canberra)- does anyone know which sort it is? -- Astrokey44|talk 02:44, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Source?

Really nice list, i wish we had this for other regions, too. But i could not find any source. If there's a source, I'll rate it A --Sarefo 00:31, 27 July 2006 (UTC) (WPSpiders)

[edit] Pictures

In my view this should be arranged in such a way that there are pictures for each species, this allows identification without knowing the name easily. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.6.128.214 (talk) 02:04, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

I added a couple of images, with and without a frame. An image for every species would make the list very long, but a table would keep it neat. I think a dozen of the best known spiders is enough. cygnis insignis 03:12, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
