Cyclosa Conigera
''Cyclosa'', also called trashline orbweavers, is a genus of orb-weaver spiders first described by Anton Menge in 1866. Widely distributed worldwide, spiders of the genus ''Cyclosa'' build relatively small orb webs with a web decoration. The web decoration in ''Cyclosa'' spiders is often linear and includes prey remains and other debris, which probably serve to camouflage the spider. The name "Cyclosa" comes from Greek 'to move in a circle', referring to how it spins its web. While most orb-web spiders face downwards in their web when waiting for prey, some ''Cyclosa'' species (e.g. ''C. ginnaga'' and ''C. argenteoalba'') face upwards. Notable members ''Cyclosa argenteoalba'' ''Cyclosa argenteoalba'' builds two types of web, a traditional sticky spider web, and a resting web that consists of just a few strands. When infected with a larva of the wasp ''Reclinervellus nielseni'', the spider switches on the behavior to build a resting web. The larva then eats the spider and uses t ...

Cyclosa Turbinata
''Cyclosa turbinata'' is a species of orb weaver belonging to the family of spiders known as Araneidae. It is found in a range from the United States to Panama, West Indies, Galapagos Islands, and has been introduced into Hawaii. Geographic Location The spider is native to the continental United States, and Mexico, but has been introduced and found in places across Hawaii, the Caribbean, Middle, and South America, the Galapagos Islands, and even Oceania. Its large geographic range is likely due to its ability to travel through the wind using its silk to catch the current. Five species of ''Cyclosa'' occur in the continental United States. Etymology The specific name is derived from the Latin word ''turbo'', meaning Top, spinning top, in reference to the spider's top-shaped body and its wheel-shaped webs. Description ''Cyclosa turbinata'' is a relatively small species with sizes about 4– 7 mm in length. Their color is a mix of browns, blacks, and whites, and their ab ...
