Spider

The spider in the image is most likely an Argiope keyserlingi, also known as the Silver argiope or St Andrew's Cross Spider. It's a large, colorful orb-weaver spider native to Australia. Here's why I think it's this species:  * Distinctive markings: The spider has a bright yellow and black abdomen with silver markings, which is characteristic of Argiope keyserlingi.  * Web pattern: The spider's web has a zigzag pattern, known as a "stabilimentum," which is often seen in orb-weaver spiders.  * Location: The spider was photographed in India, which is within the range of Argiope keyserlingi. While it's possible that the spider could be a different species, based on the information available, Argiope keyserlingi is the most likely identification.
