Orbweaver (Zygiella atrica)
This is an European species which was introduced into NA. There are two Zygiella species found in NS, Z. atrica & Z. nearctica. The two can be separated by the length of the palpal tibia; a long one would mean Z. atrica which is the case here. Identified by Mandy Howe, BugGuide. Photographed in Coldbrook.
