OK, thanks.
The rows of dark red spots down the back and the darkened area in the center of the abdomen may provide us with some clues. Will have to hit the books on this one. Thank you for such a lovely image of a lovely creature.

What a beauty!
Looks to be one of the small green Araneus, but we don't know which. Can you raise it?
