That really helped. I have to admit I really went in with tunnel vision 2 days ago and didn’t notice the elephant in the room (even without the location).
That white structure on the left is most certainly a Cyclosa sp. egg sac, the Trashline Orbweavers. However, the central spider does not seem to be the proud mom, but an unrelated spider. More likely Araneus or Larinioides …, but it’s more of a hunch. And then there is the small spider on the right. I’m quite unsure. Amazing picture.
I’ll get back to you. But further pictures will most certainly be appreciated.
Tucson Az. Spider is about the size of a blueberry. Can’t get photos today but will try tomorrow. Yes, that’s her mate I believe.
