}}Spiny orb-weavers is a common name for Gasteracantha, a genus of spiders. They are also commonly called spiny-backed orb-weavers, due to the prominent spines on their abdomen (compare genus Isoxya). These spiders can reach sizes of up to {{convert|3|cm|in|abbr=on}} in diameter (measured from spike to spike). Although their abdomen is shaped like a crab shell with spikes, it is not to be confused with a crab spider. Often brightly colored, spiny orb-weavers have a broad, hard abdomen that can be white, orange, or yellow with red markings.[1] The female shell is ringed by six red or orange spines, whereas the smaller male lacks the spiny projections and instead has four to five stubby dark projections.[2] Orb-weavers' bites are generally harmless to humans.[3] Species{{As of|2016|04}}, the World Spider Catalog accepted the following species:[{{Div col|colwidth=25em}}]- Gasteracantha aciculata (Pocock, 1899) – New Britain
