Araneus cf. bicentenarius?
Hi John and Jane,

After looking at some of the A. bicentenarius specimens today, was wondering whether there is any reason not to move this specimen there? What other large green orb weavers do we have?

That's fine with us.
We were working with Lynette on Orb Weavers but other commitments caught up with her and keep her busy, so our teamwork sort of fell away. We haven't really done anything with them since. We have several emails of suggestions ready someplace if we ever return to work on them. We'll see what kind of time we all have this coming year. Thanks for noticing this.
